It is inescapable. Silver ions are released at the anode when an atom
give up an electron and goes into solution. Once it has done so, it
cannot get the electron back except if it manages to reach the cathode
and plate out. But it sticks to the cathode due to Van der Waals force
and does not go into solution again.
Also, we need silver ions to go in the solution. That's the only thing
that kills pathogens. The particles are inert. In the case of silver,
there may be a way to convert them to ions in the body, as the
manufacturers of silverlon and acticoat bandages claim. These products
are recognized by the FDA, so there's some hard evidence for the benefit
of ionic silver.
But it's much more efficient to just make the ionic solution. You can get
a much stronger concentration of ions, and minimize the waste forming
silver hydroxide.
