An enzyme-catalysed method for the determination of mercury traces in carbonated soft drinks, by the Hg(2+) inhibition of beta-fructofuranosidase

This paper describes the utilization of the inhibition of beta-fructofuranosidase by Hg(II) during the hydrolysis of saccharose, for the determination of Hg(II) in waters and drinks. The mercury levels in the samples tested ranged from 100 to 270ng l .
