Hi Vern I thought that this area was fairly unknown and uncharted. I cannot claim to have any kind of well thought out theory of how CS works in the body (or in vitro for that matter). It would be good to hear from someone who has conducted such testing. I am assuming, from your comments, that there have been in vitro tests done with CS.
If tests have not conclusively shown CS "killing" bacteria, then posing *possible* explanations (via this list), and generating ideas for different ways to test CS, seems to me to be the best way of arriving at the "truth."
