The question of whether electrically generated Colloidal Silver works
in-vivo (in humans) can be settled once and for all if credible
clinical trials are conducted. The National Centre for Complementary
and Alternative Medicine is a US Federal Government Agency with a
charter that includes the provision of funding for such research.
They have a hefty budget for this.

If you have any relationship with a school, university, or any other
institute that could qualify for the first ever clinical in-vivo
trials of CS then I urge you to look into this. (And what institute
doesnt want funds?) There have been no in-vivo clinical trials into
the use of CS so a study would be ground breaking and high profile -
two more reasons that should make it attractive to an institution.
The NCCAM is often referrenced as a site that's 'anti' colloidal
silver so this would perhaps be an ideal test of their bias on this.
If they refuse to fund the research it would be interesting to read
their reasoning.
So, how about it. Has anyone on the list got any contacts with
institutions that could consider this?

follow this up myself.)

"NCCAM only awards funding in response to grant applications sent to
NIH.
NCCAM, like other NIH institutes and centers, accepts investigator-
initiated applications that are based on ideas formulated by the
applicant. Researchers may refer to Types of Grants and Active
Funding Announcements to find grant opportunities that may be
appropriate for them.
Scientific review groups at the NIH Center for Scientific Review
(CSR) or NCCAM Special Emphasis Panels provide peer review by
assessing the scientific merit of all applications. The funding
process is competitive. Applications with the best ratings are
considered for funding.In fiscal year 2008, NCCAM funded 12% of
applications received. The Funding Strategy explains how NCCAM funds
applications."
