Sciences:

Co-exposure of neonatal mice to a flame retardant PBDE 99

(2,2',4,4',5-pentabromodiphenyl ether) and methylmercury enhances developmental

neurotoxic defects

http://toxsci.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/kfm271v1?eaf

------------------------------------------------------------

This study is found in the same journal as the study with

thimerosal that the ND'ers are celebrating. If methylmercury

can act synergistally with other compounds to cause damage, I

am sure ethylmercury can do the same. It would be interesting

to be able to read both of these actual studies (and not only

the abstracts).
