Steve,

 

I'll lead with my chin again, how much of that's relevant *within* the human 
body?

 

AgN03, Commercial Ag powder, TEM micrographs, polywhateverthey'recalled etc 
etc...Makes for good reading for the academic, but how relevant is all this 
*within* the human body and/or blood?

 

I've read scads of stuff similar to this but being chemistry illiterate I don't 
see a connection within the human body.

 

Praps this could be broken down into something a little more suitable for the 
layman?

 

N.
