I have seen the same, with the proposition that the round shapes are better. But since the effectiveness of silver is proportional to the surface area, a rough shape should have more surface area than a sphere, so I am not convinced that the sphere is better, but believe that the opposite may actually be true for similarly sized (in mass) particles. Only testing would give a definite answer though. Marshall -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
