As for the rest of your statement regarding the catalytic effect, I suppose you have some research to back such a bold claim? Although it is redundant if only single atoms can enter the system via specific metal transporters. > > If silver is present as the uncharged metal and not as ions how can it > > react with anything? > > > > Once again, I never said it was not an ion, only a multi-atom particle ion. > But also, who said it has to react with anything.

I has to react to be a catalyst, a catalyst is reconstituted at the end of the reaction. But in any event the major method of silvers' disinfective action is the bonding of silver ions to the pathogen. > Marshall Ivan. -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
