Changes in mercury distribution and its body burden in delphinids affected by a morbillivirus infection: Evidences of methylmercury intoxication in Guiana dolphin

B. M. R. Manhaes et al.

Summary: An unusual mortality event attributed to morbillivirus infection affected total mercury, methylmercury, and selenium bioaccumulation and body burden in Guiana dolphins. Differences in Se concentrations were found in individuals collected during the UME, likely due to impairment of the detoxification process in the liver. THg concentrations in the liver were higher and differed among organs, while Se concentrations in the skin and kidney were higher and varied among other tissues/organs.
