The moss extracted from drainage of the Showadenko Kanose (acetaldehyde synthetic) industry was examined for methylmercuric chloride by the thin-layer chromatographic method. The chromatogram showed prominent spot for methylmercuric chloride at Rf 0.47, apart from phenylmercuric acetate (Rf 0.41). The value obtained here was in fair agreement with the result of the gaschromatographic procedure, and was sufficient evidence to clinch the origin of the causative agent-which was issued and had been contaminated from the Showadenko Kanose industry.
