Copper is a germicide also. >>
Bob: It's interesting to observe that the sample which contains 56% silver is the only one that has a few percent tin. Note the unexpectedly low conductivity for this sample. I wonder if it's related to the tendency of tin to form a protective oxide coating which would tend to passivate the alloy surface. The next set of readings should give us more to work with.
