  1. A, samples were analyzed using by ICP-MS and calculated following ppb (ug/L) x final volume (5 mL) x dilution factor (10 times) / organ weight.
  2. B, Organ weights were measured using by micro balance. Before measure weight, washed blood to di-water and wiped up to paper.
  3. C, The silver concentration (ng/g) x organ weight (g)
  4. N/D was analyzed sample silver concentration lower than compare with control.
  5. A statistics were analyzed Anova (multiple comparison analysis of Dennett test) and t-test. This result was described in Table that Anova was from a to cc and t-test was * and **.
