Hi Silvia,
I knew I had read about a silver based FDA approved disinfectant:

That is my problem, it needs kill TB and Pseudomonas

immersion as stated on the label. It needs to have been proven in tests
as working at whatever recommended strength. We get state board
inspectors that check, so I really need something that is labeled as
killing these bugs.
It would be a great business venture
for someone to make CS, test it for killing power at different
strengths and immersion times and market it for the beauty industry.
It would sure beat the stuff we have to use now! Toxic to me as well
as the bugs.
Dan, our implements are scrubbed well
before we disinfect, there is no biofilm and gunk left on them. The
disinfecting solution can get right to work killing anything left after
cleaning.

I think the inspectors that inspect salons wouldn't go along
with using cs as a disinfectant.

RE: CS>silver for disinfecting
I can't give you any quantitative data on this, but can give you my
opinion...
If you wish to use colloidal silver for disinfecting things, then you
should make it yourself, as it would be cost prohibitive to buy it for
this purpose. Perhaps the water disinfecting silver sold in Mexico
would be affordable (can't remember the name).
Also, I think I would have to add some hydrogen peroxide to the solution
to assist in the action of the CS and to dissolve biofilm and gunk so
the CS could get to it. The solution would have to be changed
regularly.
I'm not sure how you could guarantee this method without extensive
testing.
Dan
