Toxicity to Animals
Special Remarks onMay cause cancer based on animal data. However, at the timeof this review, no studies were found on the
Chronic Effects on Humanspossible carcinogenic activity of silver compounds in humans.
Special Remarks on otherAcute Potential Health Effects:
Toxic Effects on HumansSkin: May cause skin irritation.
Eyes: May cause mechanical eye irritation.
Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation. Expoures above TLV may result in acculmulation of silver in the
body (argyria) Symptoms may include a permanent blue-gray pigmentation of the skin, mucous membranes, and
eyes.
Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed. large doses may result in silver poisong, which may show symptoms of
gastroenteritis (gastrointestinal tract irritation), spasms, and skin discoloration.
Prolonged or repeated inhalation, application, or ingestion of silver compounds may cause a permanent bluish
discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes, and may also affect blood, and liver.
