Silver containers should not be used when boiling eggs. When silver meets protein, it can denature the protein. After denaturation, the color of the protein will change.

Silver is used for poison testing to detect protein toxins (for example, snake venom is essentially protein). If it changes color after encountering it, it can be seen that it is poisonous. Because heating of silver will release silver ions, and when egg protein encounters heavy metal ions, it will change its original properties and produce harmful substances.

Silver is one of the earliest metals used by humans. Herdsmen on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia have long noticed that mare's milk served in silver bowls will not turn sour after a few days. Modern research has further revealed the secret: silver can kill bacteria. As long as a trace amount of silver dissolves into the water and turns into silver ions, it has high sterilization ability.
