In experiments with two tissue culture lines it was shown, that cytotoxicity of mercury (1) derivatives (measured by CL50) is lesser two times, than it was for mercury (2) derivates. No significant differences in cytotoxicity were noted by the cell morphology and monolayer mitosis activity coefficient studies. This demonstrates the equal toxicity and dangerous to both derivates.
