An evaluation of the use of reptile dermal scutes as a non-invasive method to monitor mercury concentrations in the environment
Reptiles are ideal organisms for the non-invasive monitoring of mercury (Hg) contamination. We have investigated Hg bioaccumulation in tissue layers of reptile dermis as a basis for establishing a standardized collection method for Hg analysis. Tissue samples from freshwater turtle species Podocnemi...
