They are now seriously investigating clay's ability to kill bacteria. See: Mineral Studies Advance Antibacterial Alternatives http://www.infectioncontroltoday.com/hotnews/mineral-studies-antibacterial-alternatives.html
"With the guidance of Tanya Cunningham, a graduate student mentor, Koehl has helped advance understanding about the antibacterial activity of clay minerals and their ability to kill what the best antibiotics on the market can't touch. Haydel's group, part of the School of Life Sciences, in the College of Liberals Arts and Sciences, and the Biodesign Institute at ASU, did the work in collaboration with Jack Summers, an inorganic chemist at Western Carolina University. They uncovered two factors that control the antibacterial activity. Their article, "pH-dependent metal ion toxicity influences the antibacterial activity of two natural mineral mixtures" was published March 1 in the journal Public Library of Science (PLoS) ONE.

I know this is CS talk, but in addition since tried on my dog, I am now using Living Clay for dog's Lupus RECOVERY. She's been drinking it for 2 days, but yesterday made up a body mask for her and left on several hours. Her scabs/yucks under her neck all gone when I washed it off. Her ecezma skin condition looks like it cleared up in a few hours too. So far we have a few red areas from her scratching to deal with but seeing the skin today is giving me ALL hope I found the answer to her LUPUS continued recovery with skin issues to the max! She's off all steroids/antibiotics that caused the SKIN problems!!! Yeah, for sharing and wisdom. Don't buy anything but Living Clay only!!! Not all created equal. PerryA.com may be on this site so she's there to help even via phone. Carolg -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
