Methyl Mercury Analysis (EPA 1630)
Methyl Mercury, which is produced by biological processes, is a toxic organo mercury compound and a growing analyte of concern. The increasing prevalence of Methyl Mercury in the environment and the food chain is of consequence due to its bioaccumulative nature.
Microbac Laboratories, Inc. can support Methyl Mercury testing in environmental samples, water, soil, sediment, and seafood tissue samples.
