    Animal study finds that methyl Hg is not useful in determining effects of ethyl mercury.  According to this study, the conclusion is that the ethyl Mercury from Thimerosal is converted to inorganic Hg as evident in the results.  So, in essence, the ethyl mercury, considered less toxic than methyl mercury, is converted to inorganic Mercury a more toxic compound.  The results of the study revealed a higher % of inorganic Hg in the brains of those exposed to thimerosal to those exposed to methylMercury.
