SILVER
Number 47 on the "periodic table" of elements
Tests the presence of ions of silver to a high degree of accuracy to
detect contamination in the body and on a wide range of materials in your environment
Silver has been known since ancient times. Silver occurs native and in ores such as argentite (Ag2S)
and horn silver (AgCl); lead, lead-zinc, copper, gold, and copper-nickel ores are principal sources. Silver is
also recovered during electrolytic refining of copper.
Pure silver has a brilliant white metallic luster. It is a little harder than gold and is very ductile and
malleable, being exceeded only by gold and perhaps palladium. It is stable in pure air and water, but tarnishes
when exposed to ozone, hydrogen sulfide, or air containing sulfur. Silver is of the utmost importance in photography,
about 30% of the U.S. industrial consumption going into this application.
While silver itself is not considered to be toxic, most of its salts are poisonous. Silver compounds can be absorbed
in the circulatory system and reduced silver deposited in the various tissues of the body. A condition, known as argyria,
results with a greyish pigmentation of the skin and mucous membranes.
Silver plays no natural biological role in humans.
