This report briefly summarizes the status of present knowledge on the properties of silver as a water disinfectant. However, the results of various investigators are not entirely in agreement with one another. This fact is commented on by Chambers and Proctor and is illustrated in their report. The need for a better analytic method for silver in the microgram‐per‐ liter range is mentioned. In addition, the need for more comprehensive information on interfering substances is evident, as is the need for some information on the effect of silver on viruses.
