Description

  • Content Description: A collaborator in the Chemistry Department at Tulane University, Dr. Harry Ensley, has synthesized a new bifunctional chelator with specificity for ionic mercury (Hg2+) and methymercury (MeHg+). These chelators are based upon phenantholine derivative containing sulfhydryl functional groups. Experiments are underway to generate protein conjugates of this chelator to use in immunizations and screening.
