Mercury (Hg) is toxic and hazardous metal that causes natural disasters in the earth's crust. Exposure to Hg occurs via various routes; like oral (fish), inhalation, dental amalgams, and skin from cosmetics. In this review, we have discussed the sources of Hg and its potential for causing toxicity in humans. In addition, we also review its bio-chemical cycling in the environment; its systemic, immunotoxic, genotoxic/carcinogenic, and teratogenic health effects; and the dietary influences; as well as the important considerations in risk assessment and management of Hg poisoning have been discussed in detail. Many harmful outcomes have been reported, which will provide more awareness.

汞的免疫毒性：病理和毒理作用。

汞（Hg）是有毒和有害金属，会导致地壳自然灾害。汞接触有多种途径。如口服（鱼），吸入，牙科用汞合金和化妆品中的皮肤。在这篇综述中，我们讨论了汞的来源及其在人体中引起毒性的潜力。此外，我们还回顾了其在环境中的生化循环；其系统性，免疫毒性，遗传毒性/致癌性和致畸性健康影响；和饮食影响；详细讨论了汞中毒的风险评估和管理中的重要考虑因素。据报道，许多有害的结果将提供更多的认识。
