Hi all- We had an info request which has led to a conference call with EPA about solutions in use our labs that use mercury as a preservative. It seems like this is an "info fishing" call and has us concerned as to the reasoning for it. Has anyone had this request yet?

Besides thimerosal, anyone else know of any other solutions that would have mercury as a preservative?

As always- Thank you for your help and support!
