I have researched this and found that you are indeed correct.  Apparently I
confused the idea that their excretement is IN dust with that it IS dust many
many years ago.

Thanks for straightening me out on that.

The equipment needed is very high tech.  Howerver, it is also very cheap.
Buy a $15 laser pointer from Best Buy, Walgreens or wherever else you find
one and shine the laser through your CS.  You should see the beam as it
passes through the CS.  It can give you the warm fuzzy feeling that you do
have a colloid there, even if you really can't tell much about how strong it
is.

Re: CS>Melting Silver

1999-11-13 Thread Marshall Dudley
Check on gold mining.  One of the most used techniques for removing gold from
ore is to dissolve it in mercury, then boil the mercury off, leaving gold.
Mercury can also dissolve silver and in the right proportions, is used to fill
teeth.  When mercury is mixed with gold or silver it is called an amalgam.

See http://ukdb.web.aol.com/hutchinson/encyclopedia/00/M0016400.htm:

"Amalgamation, the process of forming an amalgam, is a technique sometimes
used to extract gold and silver from their ores.
The ores are ground to a fine sand and brought into contact with mercury,
which dissolves the gold and silver particles. The
amalgam is then heated to distil the mercury, leaving a residue of silver and
gold. The mercury is recovered and reused.

Almagamation to extract gold from its ore has been in use since Roman times."

This is the method given to me by Hach after going back and forth a few time, 
and
the one I am using:

Sorry for the oversight on the HCl digestion method.  We do have a silver
digestion method using only nitric acid.

 The procedure to do a digestion of a silver sample is as follows.

1)  Transfer 50 ml of sample to 150 ml beaker and add 2 ml of conc. Nitric
Acid
2)  Place beaker on hot plate and cautiously evaporate to dryness
3)  Cool the beaker and then add another 2 ml of Nitric Acid.  Cover the
beaker
with a watch glass and return to hot plate.
4)  Continue heating with gentle refluxing to near dryness.
5)  Cool the beaker then add 2.5 ml of 1:1 Nitric Acid.  Warm the beaker to
dissolve any residue from the evaporation steps.
6)  Wash down beaker walls and watch glass with demineralized water.  Filter
the sample through filter paper into a 50 ml volumetric flask. (If
thiosulfate
is present in sample see note)
7)  Add 2 drops each of Phenolphthalein Indicator and Thymolphthalein
   Indicator solution.  Add Sodium Hydroxide until soultion is pink in
color.
   A purple color indicates pH of 10.  If this is the case add one drop
of 1:1
   Nitric Acid then 2 drops each of the indicator solutions.  Repeat the
   addition of the Sodium Hydoxide to the pink color.

NOTE:  If thiosulfate is present, add 4 ml of 50% Hydrogen Peroxide in
place of the concentrated Nitric acid in step 1. Continue with steps 2
through 8.  (Taken from DR100 for Silver Instrument Manual)

Dear Listers,
Today my intrepid son went to get me some Comtrex for my nasty cough, and  a
set of fresh batteries. He even made up the new CS for me.
I just poured my old batch into a clear glass. It is clear, NO Tyndall!
New batch is golden with distinct Tyndall.
Now I know why I just spent a miserable 10 days in spite of slugging down
lots of what I thought was CS... `twas nought but distilled water.
And now I have a nice new ventral hernia from all the coughing...sigh.
Moral of the story: Fresh batteries, often.
Love to you all!

Re: CS>Rabbit intestinal flora and C.S.

1999-11-13 Thread Marsha Hallett


  Hello listers,
   
  The problem with this rabbit getting pasteurella in the first place is that 
the little bugger won't eat pellets.  He flat out refuses.  I have tried mixing 
them with banana, applesauce, sprinkling them on his lettuce, as well as trying 
to syringe feed them to him.  All to no avail.  So I have kept him on Romaine 
and collards, wheat breat, rolled oats, a piece of an apple, and shredded wheat 
cereal.  I have started him on vitamins, but still don't now how to get his 
diet balanced.  Does anyone have any rabbit knowledge?  I am going to use 
colloidal silver for the pasteurella (bunny cold) in his eyes, and am thinking 
about using C.S. as a nasal spray for his nose but am concerned about the C.S. 
getting to his mouth and from there to his digestive system.  
  His health is kinda fragile right now, so I need to be careful and stick to 
tried and true remedies.  
   
  Thankyou for your thoughts.
  Cindy

  Dear Cindy, How about feeding alfalfa hay? Mine loved it.
  I`d get him off the bread because of the yeast. Give him more hard veggies; 
carrots, jicamas, and the like.
  They need to chew, so give him something wooden to gnaw on.
  The do need access to their dung, they rechew it. Yucky to us, but it is a 
normal rabbit thing to do.
  Have you checked for a rabbit newsgroup?

CS>Re: Amelia/FAQ

1999-11-13 Thread Katarina Wittich
Hey Amelia,
I'm sorry to tell you that the FAQ I was referring to is one I am compiling
about uses for CS.
Now if only someone would do the same for all the little questions about
making CS!
If you ask again, maybe Mike will post the other FAQ which refers you to
some articles which might be helpful, but doesn't address any issues itself.
Take care,
Katarina

PS. As far as I can tell it is not that easy to determine the strength of
your CS at home - althoug some of the more technically minded seem to be
cooking up some possibilities which I don't fully understand yet. Follow
allong and you'll see. For now the best way is to standardize your process,
and then you can send samples to be tested. Fred Peschel from this list very
kindly offers that service for free - if you do a search on the archives you
can probably find the information on how to send to him -- I don't know
where I have it.
One final thing though is that no-one really knows what criterion makes CS
most effective -- ie: whether particle size or ppm are more important. You
can tell if you've got a lot of particles in your solution if you shine a
pocketsize laser pointer through it and see a good strong tyndall beam --
but if the particles are small enough you might have a lot of them and not
have them show because they are too small. And some of us think smaller is
probably a lot more effective -- but it's all quite complicated.

Good luck,
Katarina

Dear List;

Long time no hear from. A storm took out our computers, yes even
with MGE backups!!  Moved to Hawaii. Wish you all could be here with the
terrific people and weather.

I am getting back on line to ask for your help. I need, for my
health, to find Bruce Stenulson (?sp) who was making a DC version of Dan
Tracy's EMEM2 and also the EMEM3...

If anyone knows Bruce's telephone #, e-mail address, URL, please e-mail
me at c...@aloha.net.
My old EMEM2 does not work any more and I need a DC machine to use off
grid

I have done internet searches to no avail..HHELP, please...


MAHALO  & ALOHA,

Dr. P

PS: Thanks Mike, for posting this.. I know one of the CS people will
know Bruce...

Re: CS>Rabbit intestinal flora and C.S.

1999-11-13 Thread Scharbach
Cindy,

Firstly, are you giving him free choice, all the good green alfalfa hay he can 
eat?We had rabbits for several years,
my kids showed in 4-H.   We raised California's and red and white New Zealands. 
   We fed free choice alfalfa, and
a horse sweet feed, complete with oats, corn and pellets.   When we ran out of 
feed, they did great on whole wheat
bread, free choice alfalfa hay, and a mixture of oats and cracked corn.   Also 
if you can get your hands on it, rabbits
LOVE comfrey.

I would think the amount of CS he'd get in his mouth if you spray his eyes and 
nose would be minimal.  

Good luck!!

Sparrow

Hello listers,
 
The problem with this rabbit getting pasteurella in the first place is that 
the little bugger won't eat pellets.  He flat out refuses.  I have tried mixing 
them with banana, applesauce, sprinkling them on his lettuce, as well as trying 
to syringe feed them to him.  All to no avail.  So I have kept him on Romaine 
and collards, wheat breat, rolled oats, a piece of an apple, and shredded wheat 
cereal.  I have started him on vitamins, but still don't now how to get his 
diet balanced.  Does anyone have any rabbit knowledge?  I am going to use 
colloidal silver for the pasteurella (bunny cold) in his eyes, and am thinking 
about using C.S. as a nasal spray for his nose but am concerned about the C.S. 
getting to his mouth and from there to his digestive system.  
His health is kinda fragile right now, so I need to be careful and stick to 
tried and true remedies.  
 
Thankyou for your thoughts.
Cindy


CS>Mercury and Gold

1999-11-13 Thread Trem Williams
Sorry Dennis but you're wrong too.  The miners used mercury to amalgamate
the gold.  That means to make the gold stick to the mercury or vice versa.
They would rub a generous amount of mercury on clean copper sheets and place
the sheets in their sluice boxes.  When the gravel, sand, mud and water
passed through the box, the gold and any noble metals would stick to the
plate.  At the end of the day they would then remove the plate and use a
squeegee to wipe the gold and other metals stuck to the mercury off the
plate.  They would then wring the mercury out through a sheet of chamois.
The mercury would pass through the chamois leaving the metal in an
amalgamated lump in the chamois.  They would then drive the mercury off the
lump by using heat and what was left was the metal that had been trapped in
the mercury.  They then separated the gold from other metals using different
techniques.  One of the basic ones was to heat the metal lump in a crucible
with some antimony. Antimony is called the wolf in alchemical terms.  That
is because it eats all metals EXCEPT gold.  It flies off in the form of
dense white smoke and carries all metals except gold with it.  The gold left
behind is considered pure.  If there was a lot of silver in the mix, they
would use other processes to get it and would not use antimony because the
silver would be lost.  But if there was little metal other than gold, the
antimony process was favored for it's simplicity.

Gold and all noble metals stick to mercury; they do not dissolve in mercury.  
They can always be separated from mercury by heat.  It's called distillation if 
you recover the mercury.  It's called "flashing off" if you let the mercury go 
into the atmosphere.

Hope this clears the subject up to your satisfaction.

Sorry to be off topic Mike.

Re: CS>Tyndall?

So Chuck or anyone, what is that "recipe and time window for the 3

14oz, silver wires one inch apart and about 3-3 1/2 inches submerged, a
stirrer and dmm and stop when I reach 4- 4.5 on the meter measurement of
current/per Ole Bob.  The time seems to vary with the temperature and
which dw I use and for other reasons I can not determine.  My run times
have gone from 1 and 1/2 hr to 2 and 1/2hrs.  Any thoughts or comments? 
My Tyndall's are getting stronger of late and I don't know why. 
sparkles are far and few between.  Isn't stirring supposed to keep
particle size down?

Would love comments on all this.

Tyndall effect is being able to see a narrow beam of light as it is shone
through your solution.
 Most of us have used the, now inexpensive, laser pointers purchased at novelty
stores, flea markets, etc. Don't pay more than $10 for one.

Use it on your distilled water before a run, and you will feel a bit more
confident about your water (no tyndall).

 Then try it during and after your run. If you see tyndall, great. If you see
it sharply, great. If you see sparkles in the beam, uh, oh. Sparkles mean large
particles or clumps. Not desireable, cut back on your run time.

None of this is really necessary if you follow the recipe and time window for
the 3 battery system. It's just a fun thing to increase confidence in your
product.

Dust mites don't cause dust; people cause dust. Mites eat dust. Dust is 90
percent dead skin cells and hair fragments, which is protein on which dust
mites feed. The rest of Marshall's statement is correct - dust mites excrete
toxins that irritate some people's airways and cause allergic reactions.

True, that particular debate hasn't come up lately.

The consensus we have reached, or at least that I encourage, is that 
either is perfectly capable of making good CS. It's just a matter of 
getting your chosen process under control.

This is an overstatement on his part. Given the number of people
who've had good luck with the LVDC generated stuff, you can *not* say
that they don't work. It is arguable that the HVAC process generates
a *different* and in some ways possibly *better* product, yes, but it
does not negate the virtues of the low cost, low tech methods.

We've got plenty of *both* kind of units represented here. You don't 
hear much complaint from either side about their own systems not 
working! 

Be well,

Re: CS>LOW OR HIGH VOLTAGE?

1999-11-13 Thread 2001 TV VCR
James,

To wire an inexpensive VOM in series with the 10,000 VAC
the first consideration is that cheap VOM's don't measure
AC milliamps (only DC).  Sorry I did not think of that last time.

I don't know what Marshall was referring to about adding a
diode.  Adding one in series with the meter would change the
HVAC to DC.

This is more accurate:  Wire a 1,000 ohm resistor  in series
with one of the HV leads and attach your meter leads ACROSS
this resistor.  Set the meter to read at least 10VAC at first.

A 1/2 watt resistor will do.  When you power up, a reading of
1 VAC will indicate 1 mA,  5 VAC is 5 mA,  etc.  Adding this
1,000 ohm resistor to a 10,000 V circuit will reduce the current
by less than a hundredth of 1 mA! (when running at 1 to 10 mA).

You can use a lower voltage setting on the meter if necessary
for better resolution.  Thank you for the tips on CS.

Hi Ellie,

Have you ever seen a movie where the bad guys are going in somewhere to 
burglarize a place and they blow smoke out in front of them to pick laser 
lines?  If by chance you have one of those laser pointers or a laser sight 
for a weapon you can do the same thing with your colloidal silver.  The 
more ppm of silver or the larger the particles are, the stronger the line 
will be.  That is the tyndall effect.   This is the way I understand it anyway.

Re: CS>[Fwd: Cs Samples - test results]

1999-11-13 Thread Ivan Anderson
I have some comments to make Joe,

Firstly to restate the measurements as written:

> Based on the typical 1.6us/PPM:
> The water tested at 5.8us or 3.6PPM
> Sample Cs-1 tested at 7.0 us or 4.4PPM
> Sample Cs-2 tested at 6.1 us or 3.8PPM

The relationship between uS reading and mg/L (ppm) is not only
slightly wrong (1.6 vs 1.74) but is inversed. It is not true that the
relationship is 1.6uS/ppm but rather 1.6ppm/uS, or rather, at infinite
dilution 1.74ppm/uS. To be absolutely correct, at 15ppm the
relationship is 1.77ppm/uS.

So you can see that the results if redone to 1.77ppm/uS are:

Sample 1...7.0uS = 12.39ppm
Sample 2...6.1uS = 10.8  ppm

However, as the water tested at 5.8uS I would subtract that from the
sample readings, which results in:

Sample 1...7.0 - 5.8 = 1.2uS  =  2.12ppm
Sample 2...6.1 - 5.8 = 0.3uS  =  0.53ppm

The distilled water reading is very high, as mentioned, but what
happens to the impurities during generation depends upon what the
impurities are. If they are metallic cations such as copper, calcium,
magnesium etc. they it is likely they will take no part in any
reaction, remain in solution and add to the total conductivity
reading. If they are anions such as chloride, dissolved CO2, etc, then
a reaction with the silver ions may occur. How this will affect the
reading is anybody's guess, as while most silver compounds are
insoluble (and therefore no longer affect the reading) many are
slightly soluble...

The reworked results as shown above are pretty much what I would
expect for given generating time (15 min) in distilled water with a
reading of 1uS.
With your set up I would expect 5ppm in about 35 mins, 10 ppm in 50
mins and 15 ppm in 60 mins, assuming the solution was stirred every 5
mins or so.

I believe it would be wise to limit the current to under 1mA, but if
you stir frequently then it is unlikely that you will reach this limit
before you reach 15 ppm.

Hope this helps,
Ivan.

The digestion that Bruce had poor results with is using the Hach digestall, a
very expensive piece of equipment that Hack talked him into buying, and then
had to take back.  It is known that this equipment produces bad results.  The
digestion I am talking about is nothing more than dissolving the silver in
boiling nitric acid, then neutralizing with Sodium Hydroxide to produce silver

Re: CS>LOW OR HIGH VOLTAGE?

1999-11-13 Thread 2001 TV VCR
James,

To safely measure the current in the secondary circuit of the
10,000 volt transformer I would recommend the following:

With the power off attach your inductive pickup to one of the
high voltage wires making sure that no other wire (low or HV)
or metal is within several inches of the pickup

This HV wire is only 10,000 volts IN RELATION to another wire
on the transformer secondary.  With the HV transformers in the
TV's I work on (15,000 Hz,  not 60 Hz) there can be some
voltage leaking to other wires or metal, less likely with 60 Hz.

To be on the safe side you probably should use a less
expensive DMM.  You can pick one up for as low as $30 (US).
Make sure that it has a 10 megohm input impedance (if that's
what your Fluke has).  Then if somehow it blows out you don't
lose much.  Nice to have a backup meter anyhow.

By the way will your pickup measure a few milliamps?  Maybe
I should have asked that first!!  An inductive pickup may be very
inaccurate with such a small current flow.  I cannot imagine how
cutting and then carefully splicing the wire would hurt anything.
Then you could use a $10 analog VOM (volt-ohm-milliampmeter.)

If you have any suggestions for using another low voltage instead
of 30VDC (15V?  150V?) and best current levels I would be most
appreciative.  I am using the gallon jar with the large electrodes.

Good luck and let me know what happens,

Bil Green

1999-11-13 Thread BROOKS BRADLEY
To all interested list members.
We have given many rabbits "free choice" CS, in
their drinking water (sometimes 5ppm undiluted) with absolutely no
adverse reactions.  We never administered  "these therapeutic" dosages
longer than 7 days straight.  However, we used approximately 1
tablespoon of 5 ppm CS per 1 quart of water, as a bacterial
control--for months on endno problems.
We have, for years, used CS for pathogen control in
all of the drinking water for our dogs and cats, (rats also) at our
research facility.  It is a splendid control for low-count pathogen
control..
Sincerely.   Brooks Bradley

The same way that gold will dissolve in mercury at room temperature, or sugar
in water.  Once the silver is liquid other metals can dissolve in it at
temperatures far below their melting point.

Re: CS>Melting Silver

I believe that some of the alloy elements in stainless will dissolve in the
silver, such as zinc, nickel and so forth.  I would use pyrex or quartz, not
stainless.

Silver is extremely malleable.  I would consider hammering it into the size
and shape I want instead of casting it.

Joe,

If you're limiting your current, or even if you're not, you'll not 
get too much silver into the water in only 15 minutes.

I keep the current around a milliamp or less on my setup right now, 
and it takes at least an hour to get a "few" ppm. I usually run for a 
good couple of hours.

Not precise, I know, but it gives you an idea.

Be well,

Mike D.

CS>Rabbit intestinal flora and C.S.

1999-11-13 Thread Cindy Powell
Hello listers,

The problem with this rabbit getting pasteurella in the first place is that the 
little bugger won't eat pellets.  He flat out refuses.  I have tried mixing 
them with banana, applesauce, sprinkling them on his lettuce, as well as trying 
to syringe feed them to him.  All to no avail.  So I have kept him on Romaine 
and collards, wheat breat, rolled oats, a piece of an apple, and shredded wheat 
cereal.  I have started him on vitamins, but still don't now how to get his 
diet balanced.  Does anyone have any rabbit knowledge?  I am going to use 
colloidal silver for the pasteurella (bunny cold) in his eyes, and am thinking 
about using C.S. as a nasal spray for his nose but am concerned about the C.S. 
getting to his mouth and from there to his digestive system.  
His health is kinda fragile right now, so I need to be careful and stick to 
tried and true remedies.  

Thankyou for your thoughts.
Cindy

The digestion that Bruce had poor results with is using the Hach digestall, a
very expensive piece of equipment that Hack talked him into buying, and then
had to take back.  It is known that this equipment produces bad results.  The
digestion I am talking about is nothing more than dissolving the silver in
boiling nitric acid, then neutralizing with Sodium Hydroxide to produce silver
nitrate.

In a scanning spec, there's a motor and encoder type setup to step 
the wavelength from one setting to another at some rate, allowing you 
to generate an absoption vs. wavelength *curve*.

Examine the output, look for structure in the shape of the curve -- 
maybe pull some idea of particle size *distribution* out of it. Would 
be a great way to fine tune your understanding of particle size 
generated by variations in process conditions, eg., size vs. current 
density.

You can see I'm stretching for a little more capability, hoping to be 
able to pull particle size out of it. *Anything* that could drive 
down the cost of doing particle size analysis would open some doors. 

You'd only have to do enough TEM or SEM (or the cryo-stage counting 
thing you talk about) to prove the spec technique worked. You'd then 
be equipped to do series' of experiments observing the change in 
partical size distribution vs process conditions. You could answer a 
*lot* of questions that way.

It might not end up as simple as I hypothesized above!

That rings a bell. Is he talking about STEM, or Scanning Tunneling
Electron Microscopy? I worked with a guy who was setting up a STEM
back when they were a pretty new idea. He eventually got it working,
I believe, and used it to get some nifty results. 

You can literally use STEM to image individual atoms on the surface
of a crystal. You can even *manipulate* individual atoms on a
surface with the danged thing!

Compared to that, looking at silver particles depositied on a clean 
surface would be like imaging bowling balls.

I can understand the "quietly" part.

CS>Melting Silver

1999-11-13 Thread Jeffrey A. Madore
I have been experimenting with larger electrodes. I would like
to melt several pieces of 999 silver into one large flat piece.

I plan to melt them on a sheet of stainless, using an oxy acet torch.
Can anyone tell me if this would cause contamination of the silver,
such that it would not be optimum for CS generation? Would there
be a better material to use to accomplish this process? My initial
experiments showed that the stainless got cherry red as the silver
reached a temp where it would flow. Possibly I just need to heat it
more slowly.

Any comments are much appreciated.

God Bless,

Jeff K1LE - CT

Actually I do it both ways, lately HVAC.
I don't really concern myself with ppm, I shoot for an effective product.

My criteria is a clear to golden brew with a metallic taste that shows tyndall
without sparklies. Really, simple as that! It's just easier with HV.

My last run with HVAC, I experimented with 10 megs of resistance to limit the
current to less than a milliamp (9kv transformer). It appears that it could run
for days at that current. I stopped it after 8 hrs. 

I would think from your description above, that you ran it a bit too long or
your water was contaminated.
When I first set up, I used tap water to try it out and got what you described.
Don't use a cleaner (soap or detergent) to clean your container! Remember,
you're a guy!!
 Without current limiting, my run would be about 2 hrs max.

Chuck,
I know that you use HVAC to generate CS. My question is: How do you vary
the ppm concentration? If I understand correctly, the process is stopped when 
the
cone turnes into an arc. I tried this with 10kv and the product was grey with
obvious fallout.

Thanks,
