Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Mercury (Hg) is a potent toxicant of concern to the general public. Recent studies suggest that several genes that mediate Hg metabolism are polymorphic. We hypothesize that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in such genes may underline inter-individual differences in exposure biomarker concentrations. METHODS: Dental professionals were recruited during the American Dental Association (ADA)...
