British Airways uses silver filtration technology, as well as NASA. If I were to use a silver water filter like those would that endanger my skin color?
To accurately answer your question, you will have to conduct experiments on humans since scientists have never been able to produce argyria in animals. (27) You can probably come up with a fairly accurate answer if you read the scientific literature that I keep referring you to. Of course, you are going to first have to determine how much silver is ingested into the body of the people exposed in such a way, how much silver the exposed people take in from all other sources and how much they have already accumulated during a lifetime of exposure. Then you will have to estimate the amount of silver that causes argyria which, based on reported cases, seems to vary widely. I suspect that you can make a fairly good guess as to what would be safe for most people. Speak to a scientist. I think they do these calculations all the time. They evaluate the benefits and risks of individual technologies and then compare the pros and cons of one system to another. NOTE: I do not know if BA and NASA us
