AB  - Presented in this paper is result of the study of the bioconcentration potential 
      of mercury (Hg) by Suillus luteus mushroom collected from regions within Central, 
      Eastern, and Northern regions of Europe. As determined by cold-vapor atomic 
      absorption spectroscopy, the Hg content varied from 0.13 +/- 0.05 to 0.33 +/- 0.13 mg 
      kg(-1) dry matter for caps and from 0.038 +/- 0.014 to 0.095 +/- 0.038 mg kg(-1) dry 
      matter in stems. The Hg content of the soil substratum (0-10 cm layer) underneath 
      the fruiting bodies showed generally low Hg concentrations that varied widely 
      ranging from 0.0030 to 0.15 mg kg(-1) dry matter with mean values varying from 
      0.0078 +/- 0.0035 to 0.053 +/- 0.025 mg kg(-1) dry matter, which is below typical 
      content in the Earth crust. The caps were observed to be on the richer in Hg than 
      the stems at ratio between 1.8 +/- 0.4 and 5.3 +/- 2.6. The S. luteus mushroom showed 
      moderate ability to accumulate Hg with bioconcentration factor (BCF) values 
      ranging from 3.6 +/- 1.3 to 42 +/- 18. The consumption of fresh S. luteus mushroom in 
      quantities up to 300 g week(-1) (assuming no Hg ingestion from other foods) from 
      background areas in the Central, Eastern, and Northern part of Europe will not 
      result in the intake of Hg exceeds the provisional weekly tolerance limit (PTWI) 
      of 0.004 mg kg(-1) body mass.
