Thank you for that link. I was initially puzzled why the kill time was so long, since tests we had run at UT with a 5 ppm HVAC EIS killed everything in a matter of minutes. Then I noticed that the test was done in agar. As I have noted before our tests in agar showed the effectiveness drops way off from what is obtained if tests are done in a thin medium due to the immobalization of the silver particles.. The .35% sodium chloride is a good idea. Anyway, that certainly makes my previous analysis make more sense. If indeed some portion of ionic silver does make it into the blood and get converted to silver particles, then that could explain why ionic silver can work, even though none can be detected in the blood.
