No, silver cannot distinguish between good and bad germs, it will
dissable any that it comes into contact with. CS has been found inside
the cell, but it does not necessarily need to, to disrupt the normal
working. Mostly binding to proteins on the cell wall is enough to
disrupt the passage of vital substances or even breach the wall itself.

Yes, you would probably see a change in colour over time and the halting
of cell division.
