"There are two forms of silver Ionic and Colloidal"..."Ionic silver is ionic if 
missing an electron {thus giving the ion a positive electrical charge}. 
"Colloidal silver is metallic" {thus having a neutral charge}.
{} are mine.
Good to hear someone else make the distinction and draw a line in the sand 
between the two, so few people fail to do that in my experience and from what 
one reads in the public domain, the term 'CS' is used, abused and misused.  
Each will have their own characteristics after entering the body.  Both serve a 
purpose ~ efficacy dependant on the purpose.

If you look for any scientific research and/or tests you will not find any. 
There are two forms of silver Ionic and Colloidal, there is no scientific 
evidence of another form. Ionic silver is ionic if missing an electron. 
Colloidal silver is metallic(particulate) silver. In researching to find if 
there was any info for the "other" type there was none found. A more common 
name for the above compound is silver peroxide with a chemical formula of Ag2O3
 or Ag(III) oxide.  It has been around a long time and is actually a 
pretty good disinfectant.  It is also the main ingredient in silver 
oxide batteries.   Its action in vivo is not known though. One molecule of SS 
can kill an unlimited number of germs, thus the dosage for SS is 100 times 
lower than for CS. Who says?  There is no data to support that assertion, and 
it is neither logical nor reasonable. CS is a one particle-per-germ molecule. 
That would be true for a silver ion, but not metallic silver nanoparticles. It 
is excreted 100 percent and does not stand a chance to create argyria. Again, 
no data to support such an assertion. Silver Sol is just another form of ionic 
silver oxide. A search of the
 science literature failed to turn up even one in-vivo study of silver 
peroxide, Ag2O3, Ag(III) oxide, or Ag(I,III) oxide.
