A particle will be a number of atoms, for a typcial colloid, a particle of
silver could contain
100 to 10,000 atoms, so your numbers would be off by 100 to 10,000. I think
maybe their
marketing left off a billion, the number of 400 billion billion would make more
sense.

Ions. I see nothing about ions in their ad. It specifically says particles,
which means colloid,
and silver particles will last indefinitely as long as they don't encounter
hydrogen sulfide or
another sulfur compound that gives up it's sulfur easily.

Why would you say that. I add CS to my wash sometimes, and see no reason to
doubt it will kill
bacteria. After all, the water in the washing machine is much "cleaner" than
my blood stream.
If "contaminants" make CS not work, then there is no way it would work in the
blood stream which
is thick with solutes, which we all know it does.
