Silver, Serum or Plasma

This test measures the level of silver in your blood to check for excessive exposure to this metal. It helps show whether symptoms like skin discoloration are caused by silver toxicity from sources such as workplace hazards or colloidal silver supplements. Doctors use this result to confirm or rule out silver poisoning compared to other types of heavy metal exposure. However, this test cannot identify the exact source of the silver or diagnose specific organ damage on its own.
