Silver does have anti-microbial properties. I've read about a fridge from Samsung that has a silver coating for that effect on bacteria: azonano.com Coloidal silver appears risky: quackwatch.org Whereas nano silver appears less risky: physorg.com spiritofmaat.com From: futurehi.net While further research is needed, researchers are optimistic that nanological silver may be the silver bullet to kill viruses. The researchers in the study said that they had already begin experiments using silver nanoparticles to kill what is known as the super bug (Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus). Already used as a topical antibiotic in the medical industry, silver may now come under consideration as an alternative to drugs when it comes to fighting previously untreatable viruses such as the Tamiflu resistant avian flu. **** Interesting - bears watching.
