This product is sold in the U.S. and it would not be able to call itself a 'sanitizer' without having to back up the claim with lab tests. It was invented by some Harvard professor and the types of bacteria killed are flagged as being tested by two universities on one web site.
I think it contains colloidal silver, which has antiseptic properties, so much so that a Samsung(I believe) washing machine claimed to sanitize the laundry, which it did with silver. They were asked to stop manufacturing them, though, because the runoff water from the machines was killing certain bacteria that were allowing algae to grow in the waterways.
I also 'heard' that silver (thread) was being used in combat and nursing uniforms to prevent infection. The ancient Egyptians used silver for this purpose. There were people drinking the stuff (which turn some who do a lot of it a weird color - permanently). There was some bottled preparation that was sold for consumption in health food stores around which there was a controversy over quality control (amounts of the active ingredient in each bottle varied considerably) and I may be wrong, but I think there was an expiration date that was not being adhered to. I am not sure of that last statement.
There were mechanisms for sale by which a person could make their own solution. The government was, at one time, wanting to take them off the market, but it was not because they were not effective. I think there were not adequate tests on the results of long termed consumption.
A 'blue man' who drank the stuff regularly was tested medically (Dr.Oz, at NY Presbyterian maybe?) and although he was discolored, he was perfectly healthy.
Ok, I think that's the extent of my knowledge.
I don't think using it topically will turn your skin blue/grey, but I don't really know.
