Neville and John,
I don't mean to ignore you but right at the moment I don't have time to respond to your comments. I will when I get time. I addition, Marshall may have some thoughts that will affect it, - Steve N From: Neville Munn [mailto:one.red...@hotmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2010 3:07 PM To: silver-list@eskimo.com Subject: RE: CS>CS and killing of pathogens 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?
