Selenium, Mercury, and Their Molar Ratio in Sportfish from Drinking Water Reservoirs
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 15(9), 1864.
author keywords: mercury; selenium; selenium:mercury molar ratio; selenium health benefit value; reservoir; bluegill; crappie; largemouth bass; fish consumption; risk assessment
MeSH headings : Animals; Child; Drinking Water / chemistry; Environmental Monitoring; Fishes; Fresh Water; Humans; Mercury / analysis; North Carolina; Risk Assessment; Selenium / analysis; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis
TL;DR:
The findings suggest that the measures of Se protection may be unnecessarily conservative or that the USEPA Hg threshold may not be sufficiently protective of human health, especially the health of sensitive populations like pregnant or nursing mothers and young children.
