12. We also observed a byproduct that appears to be an alkylmercury species. Because of safety concerns about this unknown but potentially extremely toxic compound, we decided against further characterization.

14. Although the protocol described by the EPA calls for Cl-Br, we find NCS to be easier to handle because of its stability and nonvolatile nature. See Figure S7 for details.

18. A calibration of the fluorescence intensity with respect to mercury concentrations in fish is necessary; however, this result provides a proof of principle that 2 can be used against fish samples under oxidative conditions.
