Article Abstract
The mean maternal hair total mercury level was 6.8 ppm and the mean child hair total mercury level at age 66 months was 6.5 ppm.No adverse outcomes at 66 months were associated with either prenatal or postnatal MeHg exposure.In the population studied,consumption of a diet high in ocean fish appears to pose no threat to developmental outcomes through 66 months of age.
