eng	Assessment of Potential Risk Connected with the Use of Mercury and Mercury Electrodes	This contribution tries to asses critically the danger connected with utilization of mercury in different branches of human activities. The main attention was devoted to electrochemistry, mainly to voltammetry and polarography. However, the other branches were characterized as well: dentistry, in battery production, mining industry, and a few others. The most toxic and contrarily almost nontoxic forms of mercury and of its compounds were characterized. Some interesting cases of exposure to mercury, according to the database of the Czech Toxicological Information Centre (TIC) (from years 1995 – 2011), have been reported	Mercury; Polarography; Voltammetry; Poisoning; Toxicity of mercury; Czech Toxicological Information Centre
