Thanks, Lee Elder "Official" tests (conducted at Brigham Young University) shows that 5 ppm is effective against practically everything they tested against. 10 ppm was no better for most of the bacteria, and somewhat better (slightly shorter kill time) for 2 or 3. Several people have commented that 1/2 ppm to 3 ppm was quite effective for various uses. So IMO ... 20 ppm is probably okay, but may be "overkill" in the sense that you're wasting time (it takes longer to make), wasting silver and increasing your chances of having the silver clump into larger particles (which is far, far less effective). -- Dean -- from (almost) Des Moines -- KB0ZDF -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
