Very interesting. Do you have sharable references available?

Any buried inside a particle does not come in contact with anything and thus is not effective. Also since one silver particle can kill one pathogen, the more you have the better. Also it seems that at least one of the methods by which silver kills pathogens is by catalytic oxidation, and a catalyst's effectiveness goes up with surface area then smaller will be better. In all cases since the amount of hidden silver goes down, and the amount of surface area goes up when particle size goes down, there is good reason to believe that smaller is better. Also smaller gets absorbed through the stomach wall more easily. Marshall -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
