I don't see any discrepancy. Silver nitrate when dissolved in water splits up into silver ions and nitrate radical ions. So they are correct (as I would expect in a peer reviewed paper), the only problem is that they could have difficulty removing any of the effect of the nitrate radical ions from the tests. That is a very interesting article. Marshall -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
