Outline of Final Research Achievements	Median　mercury　concentration　in　liver of 10　adult　small　Indian　mongooses(male and female samples were each five) was 37.0 ppm (dry weight basis) (Min-Max: 9.30-318 ppm　DW). Next, we trfind a gene which expresses strong with increase of mercury level in the liver.
