Abstract
The object of the study was to discover the relationship between mercury levels in maternal and cord blood. Paired whole blood samples, maternal and cord blood were analysed for total mercury content; 45 paired samples from non-fish-eating women in southern Saskatchewan demonstrated no significant differences in mercury levels between maternal and cord blood; 43 paired samples from fish-eating women in northern Saskatchewan demonstrated a significant difference, cord blood levels being higher. The significance is discussed.
