Hi Ode, As well as I can recall, there was pretty hefty inflammation, but can't specify about pus, just don't remember. I like Becker's work on Ag ion healing of diabetic wounds, suspect penetration of the ions helps prevent surface skin-over if the wound is kept covered. Maybe there's some reaction between RBC and Cu, the horseshoe crab has green blood cuz it's hemoglobin is more like chloroglobin; could it be . . . . ?? Take care, Malcolm
