Re silver and citric acid,  Ivan, or anyone,

The interest I have in this combination is due to a company that I am
reading up on that claims to have invented a superior silver product that
kills in less than 6 minutes and is non-toxic.  The inventor claims to have
developed biologically available silver that is synergized by combining a
citric acid.  I have just never heard of anything like that before, and was
wondering if such a combination is possible, and what the resultant effect
might be with such a combination.

Thanks much, and I am loving this list!
