In China the use of dental amalgams dates back to 1000 AD, today the dental amalgams consist of mercury and a metal alloy of silver, tin, and copper.

All the aforementioned factors, in turn, are expected to augment the consumption of mercury in the region. 

Mercury is used in various devices such as thermometers, automotive parts, thermostat probes, barometers, vaccum guages, flame sensors, flowmeters, hydrometers, hygrometers/psychrometers, manometers, pyrometers, medical devices and more.

Mercury is used on a large scale in the sphygmomanometer for the measurement of blood pressure. Also, the measurement of blood pressure is important in the diagnosis and monitoring of a wide range of clinical conditions.Traditionally, blood pressure is measured non-invasively using sphygmomanometer.This is still recognised as, the ‘gold standard’ for the measuremenyt of blood pressure.
