Colloidal Silver Water

[Mark69]

@ Ex and Amigo,

Thanks for the update, I think I will be going with them as well.  I take it the price listed is old then if you are quoting a higher price.

Listen to this, take some 'Eye' Stem Cells and mix them with the proper Ph Salve so they don't die then rub the Salve onto your eyes, the Stem Cells will regenerate your eyes so that you can see again.

has this been done, no, not yet. but maybe soon, life is in the blood.

Hi all-

Just thought I'd throw in some more info here. I copied this list off of the net someplace. I agree with most of it. Something to think about when evaluating a colloidal silver water product.


EVALUATING COLLOIDAL SILVER PRODUCTS

The quality of a colloidal silver product can be determined by
following the items outlined on this page. All of these items are
important in choosing a high quality product. They include: the
manufacturing process, purity, size of the silver particles,
concentration (ppm, that is, parts per million), absence of chemical
additives/chemical stabilizers and food coloring, pH, stability (shelf
life) of the product, and efficacy. The product you purchase should
meet the following criteria:

1. Manufacturing Process: It should be manufactured by the
electro-colloidal process, meaning that ultra-fine particles of silver
are suspended in pure water by an electrical charge placed on the
silver. This process is done without the use of chemical solvents or
chemical stabilizers.

2. Purity: High quality colloidal silver consists of pure water and
99.999% pharmaceutical grade silver. Manufacturers are required to
conduct microbiology testing to guarantee that the product is free of
contamination.

3. Particle Size: To insure proper absorption and assimilation, the
particles of silver should be less than one (1) micron in diameter.

4. Concentration: For use on a regular basis the concentration should
be between 5 and 20 ppm of silver. Highly concentrated colloidal
silver products may be a health risk if taken internally on a regular
basis and should only be used under a medical doctor�s supervision.

5. Additives: Colloidal silver should not contain any silver proteins,
chemical stabilizers like E.D.T.A., P.V.P., carbopol resin, or any
other chemical additive.

6. Color: The rule of thumb in colloidal chemistry is the smaller the
silver particle size the lighter the color. Colloidal silver produced
by modern technology should be clear to light yellow in color. Avoid
products that are murky, brown, grey, black, or that contain yellow
food coloring. Golden yellow solutions are indicative of products
containing a larger particle size, silver protein, or stabilizers,
similar to the type of colloidal silver that was produced in the early
1900s.

7. PH: The pH should be neutral (alkaline). Low pH (acidic) products
can indicate the use of chemicals. It can also be an indication that
the silver particles are �falling out� of solution.

8. Shelf Life: A quality colloidal silver product should have a
guaranteed shelf life of more than one year. The solution should be
free of any sediment or particles of silver floating in the liquid or
settled on the bottom of the bottle. High quality colloidal silver can
be bottled in plastic or glass without any effect on the product.

9. Outdated Technology: Colloidal silver was commonly used in the
early 1900s prior to the advent of antibiotics. At that time
technology was not advanced enough to create colloidal silver without
the use of chemical or protein stabilizers. These stabilizers �block�
the charge on the silver particles and bind to the silver to help keep
it in suspension; however, it can cause the silver to be retained in
the body too long. With today�s advanced technology it is no longer
necessary to manufacture colloidal silver using chemical or protein
additives.

10. Concentrates: Concentrates of colloidal silver should not be
diluted. Colloidal silver should be used in the same concentration in
which it is formulated. When colloidal silver is manufactured
correctly, the electrical charge is passed through the water and
silver simultaneously. When colloidal silver concentrate is diluted by
water the disruption in the electrical charge can significantly
decrease the efficacy of the product.

11. Tyndall Effect: The Tyndall test is outdated. It was used decades
ago by chemists to determine if a colloidal silver product contained
any silver suspended in the solution. This method can still be used,
but it only works for products containing large silver particles. In
order to get a Tyndall effect the particles must be large enough to
refract light. The new ultra-fine colloidal silver products that
contain silver particles less than one micron in diameter will exhibit
very little, if any, Tyndall effect, therefore rendering this type of
test obsolete.

12. Distributors of colloidal silver should be issued a
certificate of analysis from the company from which they buy colloidal
silver. This analysis should specify purity, microbiology testing,
silver particle size, concentration (ppm), and use of chemical
stabilizers, pH, and color.

Hi all,

Got my silver wire (1 oz. 10 gauge .9999 from atlas nova) and it was still a bit pricey, but did come with an assay sheet for 99.997% purity (although the assaying lab is not listed).
I picked up a 3.5-12V 600mA AC/DC variable transformer at Wally World (Wal***t) and made some CS using 9V with a couple of 2 minute bursts to 12V over a 45min. time period. and using a cheap LED laser pen verified the Tydall effect for suspended particles after 30 min. for a guess-timation of 3-10 PPM (clear, no yellow) and am applying it to a wart to see if topical application will remove it.
(NOT a controlled testing method! Just an fairly safe way to test effectiveness personally.)

The next step is to brew up some agar using malt extract and gelatin and fruit it with some common molds and bacteria to see if reports of it's effectiveness are true.

Sorry about the delay, but all tests in good time.
I figure it'll take about a week to get petri's together, brew/sterilize the agar, and inoculate the agar with "pure" strains of various bacteria.
Since I have a way to get some MRSA bacteria from current infected parties, I think I'll use that as the true test of effectiveness.

MRSA definition here:

http://www.prepareformrsa.com/index.php/mrsa/the-cause-of-the-mrsa-virus/

Excerpt from page:

"MRSA is a virus that has come from the staph infection virus known as “Staph Aurous” and can be a deadly disease for elderly people and people that are at a very young age. The reason that the MRSA virus has come out and caused much havoc across the world is because it is a mutating virus that can cause a flesh eating bacteria to appear on the body. MRSA has mutated to a strong virus that is wasn’t before, before if you were to come into contact with the MRSA virus you would not have to worry about it, simply take penicillin and you would get better. That was in the older days though, now MRSA is a virus that has been able to step over many of the antibiotics that were once served to help the losing of this virus."

I will make batches using varying generation times and use an eye dropper to apply a drop of each batch to fruited agar to test various CS PPM concentrations and gauge it's properties, and maybe even make up a page so the results can be viewed with a spreadsheet of concentrations used.

Stay tuned, test results will follow.

Here's to hoping it's not all bunk!

exxcomm0n,

If you can get access to a TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) that would be an ideal platform to actually detect the presence of Silver particles and determine their average size. Tyndall effect test is only good to ensure your particles are small enough (lack of or faint Tyndall effect) coupled with perhaps conductivity test (computed ppm).
