Abstract
An Hand einer klinisch excessiven universellen Argyrose wurde der Silbergehalt der Haut, der Leber und des Knochen mittels der Neutronenaktivierungsanalyse bestimmt. In der Haut wurde eine Erhohung des Ag-Gehaltes auf das 80fache der Norm nach-gewiesen. Knochen- und Leberbiopsien wiesen nur einen 3–4fach erhohten Silbergehalt auf. Die absolute Silberkonzentration war in Leber und Haut des Patienten mit Argyrose etwa gleich hoch.

Occupational argyria; light and electron microscopic studies and X-ray microanalysis.

TL;DR: Microscopic studies have been performed on skin biopsies from five patients with occupational argyria and found no significant differences in the content of the cells found in the blood of these patients.

Two unusual cases of argyria: the application of an improved tissue processing method for X-ray microanalysis of selenium and sulphur in silver-laden granules

TL;DR: The two main X‐ray microanalytical findings in this study were the consistent presence of sulphur and the inconsistent occurrence of selenium in the silver‐laden granules, and successful mapping of the distribution of trace amounts of Selenium present in argyria.

Generalized argyrosis in man: neurotological, ultrastructural and X-ray microanalytical findings

TL;DR: It is indicated that the affinity of silver for membrane and neuronal structures and the deposition of silver as an insoluble compound (Ag2S) induce the progression of clinical disease.

Generalized argyria with low ceruloplasmin and copper levels in the serum. A case report with clinical and microscopical findings and a trial of penicillamine treatment

TL;DR: Light and electronmicroscopy of the skin both before and after penicillamine showed that silver particles were deposited especially in the basement membrane around eccrine sweat glands and elastic fibres of the papillary dermis.

Clinical and Forensic Aspects of the Different Subtypes of Argyria.

TL;DR: A review of the state of the art regarding pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment, and relevant clinical and forensic features of argyria can be found in this article, where a histopathological analysis with Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy is required to unequivocally determine the discoloration etiology.

Preparation of thin undecalcified bone sections by rapid manual method.

TL;DR: Sections from 3 μ to over 100 μ thick of fresh, unfixed, unembedded, unde-calcified and undehydrated bone are made by grinding 1 to 2 mm slabs of the desired orientation on waterproof carborundum abrasive paper, grit No. 320, 360 or 400.
