A comparison of urinary mercury between children with autism spectrum disorders and control children (2012)
Journal Article
Wright, B., Pearce, H., Allgar, V., Miles, J., Whitton, C., Leon, I., …Alderson-Day, B. (2012). A comparison of urinary mercury between children with autism spectrum disorders and control children. PLoS ONE, 7(2), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0029547
