lsnt that toxic ? like mercury ?

[rkcstr]

No. Gallium isn't toxic, at least not when you are just playing with it in your hand. Prolonged exposure hasn't been studied, but it isn't known to be acutely toxic. It is not anywhere near as toxic as mercury, you should just wash your hands after touching it and avoid ingestion.
