Mercury(II) oxide is used in marine and porcelain paints, dry batteries, chemical reagents, and topical antiseptics. It acts as a significant part in the production of mercury. It is utilitarian in the deduction of a mercury based superconductor. It is likewise employed, as a photo-oxidant for the photochemical oxidation of primary aromatic amines to the corresponding azoaromatic compounds. It is also an essential material for the preparation of cathodes in mercury batteries. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.

Mercuric oxide red is a dinucleotide phosphate that has been used as an oxidation catalyst in organic synthesis. Mercuric oxide red is also used as a reagent for the conversion of glycoside derivatives to their corresponding mercuric salts. It can be used in the determination of certain metabolites, such as amino acids and fatty acids, in biological samples. In addition, it can be used to detect lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress. For example, Mercuric oxide red has been shown to have the ability to bind to Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). This binding induces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6. Mercuric oxide red also inhibits plasma mass spectrometry by suppressing ionization and reducing fragmentation.
