The general symptoms are those of mercury poisoning, developing rapidly after ingestion but more slowly after low repeated exposures. Contact with eyes causes irritation and ulceration. Skin contact may cause dermatitis. Ingestion causes pain, vomiting, metallic taste, ulceration of mouth and stomach, pallor, and rapid, weak pulse. (USCG, 1999)

Mercury is absorbed mainly via ingestion and inhalation, then distributed throughout the body via the bloodstream, where a portion binds to sulfhydryl groups on haemoglobin. Mercury can undergo oxidation to mercuric mercury, which takes place via the catalase-hydrogen peroxide pathway. The mercury atom is able to diffuse down the cleft in the catalase enzyme to reach the active site where the heme ring is located. Oxidation most likely occurs in all tissue, as the catalase hydrogen peroxide pathway is ubiquitous. Following oxidation, mercury tends to accumulate in the kidneys. Mercury is excreted mainly by exhalation and in the faeces. (A6, L7)

It is a white to off-white powder with a density of 5.7 g cm⁻³ and decomposes at approximately 383 °C. It is light-sensitive and insoluble in water and ethanol but readily soluble in hot hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, and acetic acid. When heated in boiling water, it decomposes to produce mercuric chloride, ammonia, and nitrogen gas.
Listed as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP) generally known or suspected to cause serious health problems. The Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, directs EPA to set standards requiring major sources to sharply reduce routine emissions of toxic pollutants. EPA is required to establish and phase in specific performance based standards for all air emission sources that emit one or more of the listed pollutants. Mercuric ammonium chloride is included on this list.
/GUIDE 151: SUBSTANCES - TOXIC (Non-combustible)/ Fire or Explosion: Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may pollute waterways.
/GUIDE 151: SUBSTANCES - TOXIC (Non-combustible)/ Health: Highly toxic, may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed through skin. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
/GUIDE 151: SUBSTANCES - TOXIC (Non-combustible)/ Public Safety: CALL Emergency Response Telephone Number on Shipping Paper first. If Shipping Paper not available or no answer, refer to appropriate telephone number listed on the inside back cover. As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area in all directions for at least 50 meters (150 feet) for liquids and at least 25 meters (75 feet) for solids. Keep unauthorized personnel away. Stay upwind. Keep out of low areas.
/GUIDE 151: SUBSTANCES - TOXIC (Non-combustible)/ Protective Clothing: Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).

If material involved in fire: Extinguish fire using agent suitable for type of surrounding fire (material itself does not burn or burns with difficulty). Use water in flooding quantites as fog. Use "alcohol" foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide.
Mercury spills should be cleaned up immediately by use of a special vacuum cleaner. Then the area should be washed with a dilute calcium sulfide solution. Small quantities of mercury can be picked up by mixing with copper metal granules. ... /Mercury/
Mercury removal from waste water can be accomplished by these processes: BMS process; Chlorine is added to the waste water, oxidizing any mercury present to the ionic state. The BMS adsorbent (an activated carbon concentrate of sulfur cmpd on its surface) is used to collect ionic mercury. The spent adsorbent is then distilled to recover the mercury, leaving a carbon residue for reuse or disposal. TMR IMAC Process; Waste water is fed into a reactor, whereby a slight excess of chlorine is maintained, oxidizing any mercury present to ionic mercury. The liquid is then passed through the TMR IMAC ion-exchange resin where mercury ions are adsorbed. The mercury is then stripped from the spent resin with hydrochloric acid solution. /Mercury cmpds/

If material not involved in fire: Keep material out of water sources and sewers.
Personnel protection: Avoid breathing dusts, and fumes from burning material. Keep upwind. Avoid bodily contact with the material. ... Do not handle broken packages unless wearing appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash away any material which may have contacted the body with copious amounts of water or soap and water. ...

Mercury mainly affects the nervous system. Exposure to high levels of metallic, inorganic, or organic mercury can permanently damage the brain, kidneys, and developing fetus. Effects on brain functioning may result in irritability, shyness, tremors, changes in vision or hearing, and memory problems. Acrodynia, a type of mercury poisoning in children, is characterized by pain and pink discoloration of the hands and feet. Mercury poisoning can also cause Hunter-Russell syndrome and Minamata disease. (L7)
High-affinity binding of the divalent mercuric ion to thiol or sulfhydryl groups of proteins is believed to be the major mechanism for the activity of mercury. Through alterations in intracellular thiol status, mercury can promote oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and changes in heme metabolism. Mercury is known to bind to microsomal and mitochondrial enzymes, resulting in cell injury and death. For example, mercury is known to inhibit aquaporins, halting water flow across the cell membrane. It also inhibits the protein LCK, which causes decreased T-cell signalling and immune system depression. Mercury is also believed to inhibit neuronal excitability by acting on the postsynaptic neuronal membrane. It also affects the nervous system by inhibiting protein kinase C and alkaline phosphatase, which impairs brain microvascular formation and function, as well as alters the blood-brain barrier. Mercury also produces an autoimmune response, likely by modification of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules, self peptides, T-cell receptors, or cell-surface adhesion molecules.

Mercuric ammonium chloride, 0.075 mg/kg doses calculated as mercury, increased blood acid phosphatase and decreased cerebral and gonadial lactate dehydrogenase.
Among mercuric iodide (HgI2), mercuric chloride (HgCl2) and mercuric ammonium chloride, the acute toxic concn to monolayer cell cultures (Hepl-2, Vero and amnion) was the lowest for HgI2 (cell degeneration), followed by that of HgCl2. The Hg(II) cmpds belonged to class II type materials (highly toxic). The sensitivity of the cell lines to the mercury (Hg) was practically similar; only human amnion cells were somewhat more sensitive than the remaining ones. The Hg inhibited the cell growth and multiplication and the max effect was observed by 48 hr. The investigated cmpd inhibited monoamine oxidase activity in the hepatic mitochondria at 10-2M.
A toxicological study of poorly soluble mercury compounds, including mercuric iodide, mercuric ammonium chloride and mercuric oxide indicated that mercuric iodide was the most toxic compound. Acute toxicity study following administration via stomach and single inhalation exposure to rats showed they have approx similar toxicity.
Acute toxicity studies with several mono and divalent mercury cmpd in rats and mice by different admin routes (oral, cutaneous, ip) indicated that mercuric ammonium chloride was the least toxic Hg2+ cmpd. Mercuric chloride (via stomach in mice) and mercuric nitrate (ip in mice) were most toxic among Hg+ cmpd. Hg2+ cmpd were more toxic than the Hg+ cmpd. The effect of anion on the toxicity of the cmpd was more evident in the Hg2+ subgroup.
