There is a Xenon chamber at 14-1 if I remember it correctly.
I never had luck though.
How about Iodine or Gadolinium?

Xenon/Krypton, anyone? If you have the equipment, might as well try it. I
think I have seen the apparatus at some beamlines, although I did hear
recently that xenon is ridiculously expensive now.

My Question is:

Does mercury tends to get into the protein core to denature protein or
not?

This is more likely to happen for a small "bare" Hg like Hg2+ in HgCl2 or Hg(OAc)2 than it is for a large organomercury compound like PCMB, PCMBS etc so if you were especially concerned about that, start with the latter
compounds.  I'd also probably try Me3Pb(OAc) as an alternative to
mercurials.
