CS actually has EPA approval as a surface disinfectant.
If left to dry on a surface, however, it can stain it. [Not recommended for
use on porous surfaces that should stay nice looking...like marble counter
tops ]
According to a Brigham Young University study, as little as 3 parts per
billion was enough to sterilize toilet water, but 3 PPM did the job much
faster.
"Mobility" of the silver counts.
Sterilizing agar gel samples has been less than stellar.
Sterilizing "broth" samples [liquid]...astounding.
When making CS [EIS] there are always some amount of byproducts made that
settle out...save that *bottom sludge* for hand sanitizing and other
topical applications.
That's the most effective way to filter a batch BTW.
Let it sit for a day or so and decant.

I was wondering if anyone has experience with using CS for household
disinfecting (countertops, etc.).
Also, for things like a toothbrush soak between uses?
Finally, do you know if it can be used as a hand sanitizer? If so how
strong would it need to be?
Thanks.
