Genetic Aspects of Susceptibility to Mercury Toxicity: An Overview.

International journal of environmental research and public health - 18 Jan 2017

Andreoli Virginia, Sprovieri Francesca

Abstract excerpt

Human exposure to mercury is still a major public health concern. In this context, children have a higher susceptibility to adverse neurological mercury effects, compared to adults with similar exposures. Moreover, there exists a marked variability of personal response to detrimental mercury action, in particular among population groups with significant mercury exposure. New scientific evidence on genetic...
