Is there a way to bond a sugar molecule (e.g., D-Fructose and D-Mannose) to the colloidal silver particles?
The thinking is that this could create a Trojan Horse method where the cancer cells will gobble up the sugar molecule with the silver particle attached and the silver will quickly kill them.

tfw1,
Yes, when making CS over 30ppm, I use a Karo Syrup (KS) blend in my batch as well as gelatin to act as a potent capping agent. KS contains dextrose, maltose and glucose. This combination of ingredients helps prevent aggregation and improves reduction to silver nanoparticles from ionic silver. I make up to 320 ppm CS using the above.
