It will always be confusing, especially to newcomers. EIS stand for "Electrically Isolated Silver", and the term was intended to distinguish ionic silver from the multitude of other versions, such as particulate, or compounds such as mild silver protein (MSP - another acronym), silver acetate, etc. However, EIS can have more than one interpretation, so it really doesn't solve the identity problem, and it is starting to fall into disuse. Most people use the term "cs" when referring to ionic silver, and the other forms of silver are discouraged due to poor biological activity and/or the high risk of Argyria. The Silver List and the two Yahoo forums use the term cs as the acronym for "colloidal silver", and the preponderance of the discussions are on the ionic form. So whether it is technically accurate or not, the term cs referring to ionic silver is probably better understood than any other.
