Mineral sulfide colloids and nanoparticles are important for the aquatic fate and transport of toxic metals such as zinc and mercury in anaerobic environments. The persistence of metal sulfides in the colloidal form is likely to depend on surface interactions with dissolved natural organic matter. In this work, we investigated the sorption of cysteine and serine on ZnS and HgS particles and the implications...
