Hypothetical Mechanism of Skin Argyria

Introduction. Argyria is an acquired skin condition that appears after the exposure or consumption of silver, leading to blue grey coloration and mucosa. The aim present work was draw researchers’ attention two aspects argyria until now have not received enough consideration. They are: (1) process delivering silver compound from gastrointestinal tract (2) possibility for chloride participate in this along with proteinates. Methodology. Illustrative experiments included observation color change (visual using UV-Vis spectrometry) under different light conditions sol a sweat-simulating solution, vials pig (in direct contact). Results Discussion. A hypothetical mechanism based on perspiration system compounds proposed. It also proposed completely exclude partial participation proteinates process.
