Solution species identity was confirmed by measuring the extended x-ray absorption fine structure. Methylmercury cysteine showed Hg-C and Hg-S bond lengths of 2.06 and 2.35 å respectively.
Aqueous CH 3 HgCl shows Hg-C and Hg-Cl bond-lengths of 2.02 and 2.30 å respectively.
Research at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory was supported by DOE Office of Basic Energy Services Office of Biological and Environmental Research and by NIH National Center for Research Resources. We thank Cook's Seafood Market Menlo Park CA for the gift of fresh fish samples.
