5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

SILVER, AS AG NITRATE, IS ABSORBED FROM THE RESP & GI TRACTS ... ABSORPTION OF SILVER NITRATE THROUGH THE INTACT SKIN IS OF NO PHYSIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE, HOWEVER, SOME ABSORPTION THROUGH MUCOUS MEMBRANES OF THE NOSE & THROAT PROBABLY OCCURS. ABSORBED SILVER IS TENACIOUSLY RETAINED ... IN ELASTIC TISSUES THROUGHOUT THE BODY.

... Silver in brain and spinal cord sections from rats treated with ... silver nitrate was visualized by physical appearance. The silver penetrated the blood brain barrier and accumulated in the neurons and glia. The distribution of silver in the central nervous system was heterogeneous. Even with low doses and short survival periods, silver accumulated in large motorneurons in the brain stem and spinal cord and in the neurons in the cerebellar nuclei. Silver was only found in the diecenphalic and telecenphalic structures after extensive exposure. Silver distribution following oral ... AgNO3 treatment ... resulted in a relatively high content of silver in the glia. ... Electron microscopic studies /revealed/ ... silver ... intracellularly in the lysosomes and extracellularly in basement membranes and elastic fibers of the vessels.

All forms of silver are cumulative once they enter body tissues, and very little is excreted.

Sittig, M. Handbook of Toxic and Hazardous Chemicals and Carcinogens, 1985. 2nd ed. Park Ridge, NJ: Noyes Data Corporation, 1985., p. 789


In argyric rats given 0.5 percent silver nitrate in their drinking water for nine months, silver was especially found in lysosomes of the liver's Kupffer cells, at the basal membrane of the capillaries, and the connective tissue cells of the pancreas.

5.4 Metabolism/Metabolites

/The investigators/ reported that rats injected iv with radioactive silver nitrate excreted silver in the bile mainly bound to a low molecular-wt complex which appeared to be glutathione.

Friberg, L., Nordberg, G.F., Kessler, E. and Vouk, V.B. (eds). Handbook of the Toxicology of Metals. 2nd ed. Vols I, II.: Amsterdam: Elsevier Science Publishers B.V., 1986., p. V2 525


A marked variation in biliary excretion was observed in different species administered silver as silver nitrate in a single iv injection at 0.1 mg/kg of silver over a 2 hour period ... . Thirty minutes after treatment, male Sprague Dawley rats excreted silver into the bile at a rate of 0.25 ug/min/kg, New Zealand White male rabbits excreted 0.05 ug/min/kg, and mongrel male dogs excreted 0.005 ug/min/kg. The concentration of silver in the plasma was markedly lower in the dog than in the rat or rabbit, indicating a larger volume of distribution in the dog. This variation appears to be attributable to differences in the transfer of silver from liver to bile. The species with the lowest biliary excretion rate (dog) had the highest liver concentration of silver (rat 1.24, rabbit = 2.13 and dog = 2.9 ug silver/g liver). In all species, the concentration of silver in the bile was greater than that in plasma with no observable dose gradient, thereby indicating an active transport process and a saturable mechanism.

5.5 Biological Half-Life

Silver injected into rats as radioactive silver nitrate had a half-time of 2.2 days. ... For rats given a single ip injection of radioactive silver nitrate, a 50% reduction in radioactivity of whole blood, plasma, kidney, & liver after approx 40 hr. A 50% reduction in the radioactivity content of spleen occurred after about 70 hr while that of brain took about 84 hr. The biological half-time of silver in the lungs of a human exposed to silver has been estimated to be 1 day, while that in the liver was 52 days.

Friberg, L., Nordberg, G.F., Kessler, E. and Vouk, V.B. (eds). Handbook of the Toxicology of Metals. 2nd ed. Vols I, II.: Amsterdam: Elsevier Science Publishers B.V., 1986., p. V2 525


The biphasic elimination half-times after silver nitrate ingestion by monkeys were 0.3 & 3 days.

American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, Inc. Documentation of the Threshold Limit Values and Biological Exposure Indices. 6th ed. Volumes I, II, III. Cincinnati, OH: ACGIH, 1991., p. 1397


Whole-body retention studies in mice and monkeys following oral dosing with radiolabeled silver nitrate indicate that silver excretion in these species follows a biexponential profile with biological half-lives of 0.1 and 1.6 days in mice and 0.3 and 3 days in monkeys. In similarly exposed rats and dogs, silver excretion followed a triexponential profile with biological half-lives of 0.1, 0.7, and 5.9 days in rats and 0.1, 7.6, and 33.8 days in dogs .. .

5.6 Mechanism of Action

To elucidate the possible mechanism of initiation of lipid peroxidation in silver nitrate treated erythrocytes, the effect of AgNO3 on Hb catalyzed peroxidation of phospholipid liposomes was studied. Ag+ significantly increases the rate of Hb-catalyzed peroxidation. The inhibition of this effect by superoxide dismutase and catalase suggests that superoxide radical and H2O2 are involved. It was demonstrated also that Ag+ potentiates the Hb autoxidation and increases the binding of Hb to the erythrocyte membrane.

PMID:3707552 Ribarov S et al; Biomed Biochim Acta 45 (3): 321-30 (1986)


Silver nitrate exhibits antiseptic, germicidal, astringent, and caustic or escharotic activity. These effects may result from silver ions readily combining with sulfhydryl, carboxyl, phosphate, amino, and other biologically important chemical groups. When silver ions interact with proteins, physical properties of the protein are usually altered; the protein may be denatured and precipitation usually occurs. Silver ions act on the surface of bacteria causing substantial changes in the cell wall and membrane. The germicidal activity of silver nitrate may be attributed to precipitation of bacterial proteins by liberated silver ions.
