"Regarding using salts: When you add salt to the water, the reason the solution can hold more silver is that salt changes the solubility. Seawater has about 35,000 PPM of salts, so you can easily (for example) create a silver solution in the hundreds. "

You get more 'suspension' perhaps but not more 'solution' as far as I can tell. When I've made CS with distilled water and salt, added to a strength of 200 and 400 uS, (as an experiment) I get no uS (ionic) increase but a I do see a very heavy TE indicating its all in suspended silverchloride particles. This is what puzzles me about my tap water experiment. When I use tap water the silver really does seem to stay in 'solution' (minimal TE) even though the uS is similarly around 400uS. I wish i could get a scientific analysis of my tap water.

"I personally have no interest in silver compounds outside of EIS, but if I were going to take mega doses of concentrated silver, it wouldn't be unknown compounds with limited effectiveness made from tap water, it would most certainly be silver citrate. "

Me..
I'm certainly not recommending using compounds. I was just responding to the implication that 'Only CS is good and all other silver compounds are bad' when theres very little evidence for the latter. (Unless one was to consume to excess of course).

Heres a list of over 100 documents showing that silver compounds have antimicrobial properties...
