Scientists Unlock Chemical Processes Behind Argyria - Silver Turning People Blue

Researchers from Brown University have shown for the first time how ingesting too much silver can cause argyria, a rare condition in which patients' skin turns a striking shade of grayish blue. "It's the first conceptual model giving the whole picture of how one develops this condition," said Robert Hurt, professor of engineering at Brown and part of the research team. "What's interesting here is that the particles someone ingests aren't the particles that ultimately cause the disorder." Scientists have known for years argyria had something to do with silver... via Health News from Medical News Today Read More Here..
