Mercury, selenium and neurochemical biomarkers in different brain regions of migrating common loons from Lake Erie, Canada

Common loons (Gavia immer) can be exposed to relatively high levels of dietary methylmercury (MeHg) through fish consumption, and several studies have documented MeHg-associated health effects in this species. To further study the neurological risks of MeHg accumulation, migrating loons dying of Typ...
