| Description | This study focuses on the determination of methylmercury in plant matrices by means of GC-AFS. The developed extraction procedure is based on the enzymatic hydrolysis of the matrix by cellulase, followed by the extraction of methylmercury in hydrochloric acid and the extraction of derivatized methylmercury into the organic phase. |
