|---|---|
| mercury compounds | Inorganic compounds that contain mercury as an integral part of the molecule. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mercury deutoiodide | mercuric iodide, red |
| mercury isotopes | Stable mercury atoms that have the same atomic number as the element mercury, but differ in atomic weight. Hg-196, 198-201, and 204 are stable mercury isotopes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mercury poisoning | A disease usually caused by the ingestion of mercury or mercury compounds, which are toxic in relation to their ability to produce mercuric ions; usually acute mercury poisoning is associated with ulcerations of the stomach and intestine and toxic changes in the renal tubules; anuria and anaemia may occur; usually chronic mercury poisoning is a result of industrial poisoning and causes gastrointestinal or central nervous system manifestations including stomatitis, diarrhoea, ataxia, tremor, hyperreflexia, sensorineural impairment, and emotional instability (Mad Hatter syndrome). Synonym: hydrargyria, hydrargyrism, mercurialism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mercury protoiodide | HgI;used externally as an ointment in eye diseases. Synonym: mercury protoiodide, yellow mercury iodide. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mercury radioisotopes | Unstable isotopes of mercury that decay or disintegrate emitting radiation. Hg atoms with atomic weights 185-195, 197, 203, 205, and 206 are radioactive mercury isotopes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mercury subsalicylate | A powder used externally in the treatment of parasitic and fungus skin diseases. Synonym: mercury subsalicylate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mercury vapor lamp | A lamp in which the electric arc is in an ionised mercury vapor atmosphere; it produces ultraviolet light that can be used therapeutically or in diagnostic photometry. (05 Mar 2000) |
| yellow mercury iodide | HgI;used externally as an ointment in eye diseases. Synonym: mercury protoiodide, yellow mercury iodide. (05 Mar 2000) |
