Can anyone suggest the best solvent for solubilising silver phosphate and glass oxide based antimicrobial additive?

05 May 2014 1 1K Report

Nitric acid can be used as a solvent, but does it show any effect on microbial growth?

The issue would be the pH, using HNO3 you will drop the pH a lot. HNO3 in solution is not different than nitrate. I'm not sure what do you want to do but once solubilized, if you increase the pH it is likely that the phosphate will precipitate again.

Have you tried aqueous ammonia? It dissolves AgCl, otherwise insoluble forming silver-ammonia complexes.
