Abstract

A recently developed electron microscopic-histochemical method was employed to study the general cellular as well as the precise intracellular localization and distribution of mercury in various parts of the nervous system after mercury intoxication. The general cellular distribution pattern of mercury seems to correspond to the anatomical localization of the pathological changes. Intracellularly, mercury was found binding mainly to the membraneous structures in the cytoplasm. Only very minimal amounts of mercury were found inside the nucleus.
