How does it do that?

I am confused, did you not say that when placed in the mouth it forms a
white suspension like in the salt test?

I am not sure how you are reaching this conclusion.  If the silver
chloride dissolves to maintain a .8 ppm concentration, and is absorbed
under the tongh then what is happening to the other 90%?

No, I would not, and I don't follow why you would think it would.  For
example  lets take a .8 ppm ion concentration and mix it with spit and get
.8pp silver chloride. This then gets absorbed in say a minute into the
blood stream, and it only in the mouth for a minute. Then if we do the
same thing with 10 ppm, .8 ppm of the silver chloride will dissolve, and
be absorbed into the blood in say a minute, then another .8 will dissolve
and be absorbed in the next minute until all the silver chloride has
dissolved and moved into the blood stream. Using the rates above, this
would take about 12 minutes. So not only do we get 12 times as much silver
into the blood, but it is in the mouth for 12 times as long as well.  So
the strength of the CS should make a big difference, in this case I would
say about a 24:1 difference.

That is what I am saying.

This is possibly due to the increased time of exposure due to the time it
takes all the silver chloride to move out of the mouth in addition to the
increase in total silver entering the blood.

Can you define the zing effect?

Interesting.  I am amazed that HDPE contains plasticizer, it is such a
soft plastic to start with.
