  1. Mechanisms for the methylation of As in biological systems Thiols and the reduction of AsV --> AsIII

  2. Organoarsenic arsenous acid methylarsonous acid methylarsonic acid dimethylarsinous acid dimethylarsinic acid trimethylarsinine arsenic acid trimethylarsenic oxide Styblo et al, EHP 110, 5, 2002 Floreao et al, EHP 113, 6, 2005 Cullen et al, JBIC 21, 1984

  3. Electron Transfer GSH CYS Cullen et al, JBIC 21, 1984
