The tri-mercury test breaks down mercury exposure into two forms—methyl mercury (environmental, from fish and food) and inorganic mercury (from dental amalgams off-gassing)—allowing clinicians to identify the source and predict where it is stored (inorganic in urine, methyl in hair).

“they break it down between methyl mercury and inorganic mercury so methyl mercury is typically the form that we're getting exposed to from environmental stuff like fish and food and you know if there's uh coal burning areas um then in organic mercury if your amalgams your silver fillings are maybe still off gassing [16:01]”
