RE: CSThe color of silver
I would hazard a guess and say that the bottom of the electrode is sharp and has formed a current 'hot spot', and is emitting a stream of ions much as the needle point of a negative ion generator does. If one covered the end of the electrode with a non-reactive plastic perhaps this emission would then cease.

Yes, I don't see mist at the anode very often, and only at high current. Here is an example of a 3 nines misting at both electrodes: http://www.utopiasilver.com/images/gen3.jpg Well, it looks like it is only emanating from one electrode to me. Some food for thought: OH- is generated at the cathode in equal quantities to Ag+ at the anode, until some silver ions reach the cathode. Yes, this brings up a small problem. Several people have posted observations of misting with a 3 nines after only 10 minutes of operation. This does not seem to allow enough time for silver ions to reach the cathode. Not quite sure what you mean. Ions don't need to reach the other electrode in order for the current to rise, indeed that would limit the current increase somewhat. At that time both water and silver ions are reduced here (and perhaps silver ions preferentially given the over-voltage required to reduce water) so the amount of OH- available for reaction with Ag+ is lower, perhaps halved at least. Something funny seems to be happening at the cathode with low current density (for example, 87 uA/sq.in.) With high current density, both electrodes are covered with a black film. Even if you wipe it off, the electrodes remain dark. When the same electrodes are run at low current density, the anode remains dark, but the cathode residue is removed down to bare silver. Steve mentioned that he tried running at low current and observed the same thing. Yes, I use that fact, and a generous distance between electrodes to design generators that don't require stirring, and yet still have an acceptable generating time ( 2hrs @ 500mL) because of the 30V starting voltage. If you get the parameters correct, by the time silver ions reach the cathode an acceptable concentration has been reached (10 - 15 ppm), and at 20 ppm only a very fine grey cathode coating. In my view the black coating on the anode is the look of silver metal disassociating into ions... I doubt that there is much in the way of silver oxide in this coating as oxygen is not generated in this process. Indeed this layer should not be disturbed, in my view, and should be left intact between batches. Also, for ions to interact they must pretty much collide head on with each other and with sufficient velocity to break through the shield of water molecules they drag with them and which form the ions hydrated radius. For example, the radius of the Ag+ ion is about 0.126nm while its hydrated radius is 0.212nm What does all this mean? well my view is: The concentration of silver ions will rise in the solution as long as water is reduced to H2(gas) at the cathode. The interaction between Ag+ and OH- forming AgOH or 2AgO (the two are interchangeable depending upon pH) is minimal, perhaps only 1 or 2%. There is some Ag(solid) colloids infused from Ag+ reduction at the cathode. Regards Ivan Yes, it seems the probability of silver ions combining with hydroxyl seems to be very low. The thing that strikes me is when misting starts, it occurs very suddenly. This has always surprised me. If the process is continued, the entire solution turns black and coats the sides of the glass. Yes, I believe that some form of micro arcing occurs and the electrode is sputtering rather than subject to electrolysis. However, misting does not seem to occur below a certain current density. Near the end of the process, I sometimes see very tiny gray fingers growing on the cathode. Perhaps you see them

When I make it slow, it stays clear. When I make it fast, it turns yellow. When I mix it with tap water, it turns pink (or lavender). When I mix it with salt, it turns blue. When Frank makes it, it turns brown or grey. Is anyone else getting different colors? PS - I only use 99.99 silver and DW - no additives. Andy (^_^) Hi Andy, You will probably get many responses to this one:) I don't know about making it with tap water, but the other colors are an indication of the presence of particles and their size. There are many theories on how particles are formed. I believe it is due to the density of the ion clouds at each electrode. The ion clouds contain silver ions and hydroxyl radicals (OH-). The silver ions are generated at the anode: 2Ag(s) - 2e -- 2Ag(+) They drift slowly to the cathode due to the field across the cell. The hydroxyl ions are generated at the cathode: 2H2O + 2e -- 2OH(-) + H2(g) And they drift slowly to the anode due to the field across the cell. Eventually both electrodes are surrounded by invisible clouds composed of silver and hydroxyl ions. When the ion clouds become dense enough, the silver ions find themselves close enough to hydroxyl ions to begin combining. I believe this produces silver hydroxide: Ag(+) + OH(-) -- AgOH The silver hydroxide is unstable and forms silver oxide particles: 2AgOH -- Ag2O + H2O The particles combine due to van Der Walls forces and become large enough to absorb blue light from the spectrum. This leaves yellow as the dominant color in the solution. One factor that lends credence to this theory is the time it takes for both electrodes to start misting, assuming equal wetted area and uniform current distribution on both electrodes. In my experience, the cathode usually starts misting first. This cannot be explained by assuming the silver ions are departing the anode, which reduces the cloud density at the anode. The reason is the hydroxyl ions are also leaving the vicinity of the cathode, which likewise reduces the density. The two processes should be symmetrical, and both electrodes should start misting at the same time. I believe there is an answer to the puzzle. If the hydroxyl ions generated at the cathode move slower than the silver ions, they will take longer to reach the anode than it takes for the silver ions to reach the cathode. This means the cloud at the cathode will reach the density needed to start misting before the cloud at the anode. However, misting means there are now fewer hydroxyl ions available at the cathode to migrate to the anode, and the anode cloud will be less dense. Since the anode cloud is less dense, there is less chance of ions

It is my understanding that his patent was an adaptation of the original with regard to portability or camera mounting or some such. Regards Ivan. Hi Ivan, Very nice to see your posts again! Yes, you have to have a subscription to Delphion to search the patent database before 1971. However, there are a lot of myths surrounding Dr. Bob Beck. One is that he made millions on his strobe flash patent. Another site has a biography, which states he sold it for $500: As a photographer, he applied his talents to developing an electronic flash for his camera. I learned to blow glass and I bought a container of xenon for $70. It was too valuable to leave at Wilcox Photo Sales where I was doing the work, so I took it home with me. Mother said, `What's that?' I said xenon. `What did it cost?' I said $70. She exploded. `You paid $70 for that empty glass thing!' When she looked at that she saw nothing. The gas was invisible. When I looked at it I saw the future of photography. Bob sold the patent his low voltage flashcube to Ed Wilcox for $500. That was the most money I'd ever seen in my life, paid for my last semester at USC When the Olympics were held here in Los Angeles and the coliseum was full of people, the announcer suggested that they turn out the lights in the stadium and people flash to signify they'd had a good time. I was sitting in my bedroom looking at the television and here were these what looked like hundreds of thousands of flashbulbs. Tears came to my eyes because I realized that all of those things were my grandchildren and it wasn't just one or two units or a dozen at Life magazine that I built with my own hands, it was the whole world using my grandchildren. http://sharinghealth.com/researchers/beck.html So, assuming he is blowing glass, he is trying to make a flash strobe like Dr. Edgerton's. However, Krypton is normally used for very high speed flashes, and is unsuitable by itself for color photography. Other gasses such as Xenon are needed to obtain the proper color balance: http://photography.about.com/library/weekly/aa040201d.htm This takes very expensive equipment to adjust the mixture and keep it correct. So it doesn't look like something you could make on a kitchen table at home. In addition, I think the general school policy around that time was for students to assign any patent rights to the University. It certainly was true when I was at MIT in the late 60's. I had to assign my first patent to MIT, and I still have the dollar they gave me in return: http://www3.sympatico.ca/add.automation/patents/3674930.htm So I don't know how much truth there may be in some of these stories. But I think the important point is Dr. Beck was one of the early adopters of colloidal silver. I wrote Mark Metcalf and asked him where he got the idea for the three nines. He replied that he always credited Dr. Beck for the discovery in his articles. Also, Dr. Beck was mentioned very early in the list archives. So Dr. Beck's place in the history of cs is assured, regardless of some of the myths that may surround his early career. Anyway, it's great to see your posts again.

RE: CS H2O2, ag(+), NaCl
Perhaps so, But from what I have read of this thread, it seems that Frank is mistaken if he believes that current flows in an electrolyte by way of electrons, Current consists of electrons flowing through the electrically conductive ionic solution. In fact current flows in an electrolyte by the mobility of ions which traverse the solvent to gain or loose electrons at the electrode-solvent boundary. There is however, special cases (which usually involve extreme conditions), where free electrons do become solvated or hydrated. Hydrated electrons are most readily created by dissolving alkaline earth metals in liquid ammonia, and which are stable because they are caged or boxed by the solvent (the velocity of diffusion being the that of the cage). But in standard electrochemical cells this quote is sums current thought: In particular, what is to be questioned is whether or not free electrons in solution are ever present at any stage of the reaction. In general, the answer is that they are not. That such an answer can be given is due to extensive studies of the so-called hydrated electron, e(aq), formed, for example, by bombardment of water with high energy b particles (electrons emitted during nuclear disintegrations). This extremely potent reducing agent is very short-lived in water and could not be involved as an intermediate in solution redox processes except perhaps those involving the alkali metals. http://www.chem.uwa.edu.au/enrolled_students/Chem100/Chem100_sect4/sec t4.3.html While free electrons are unlikely to be introduced by the electrodes, they may be introduced into a solution by photoionisation or injected by low energy electron beam, and given that Frank mentions nano or microsecond kilovolt pulses, with a peak power of tens of kilowatts...

RE: CSRE: hypothyroidism - for Sharon
There are some health professionals that believe that both hypo and hyperthyroidism is a vitamin D insufficiency problem (like so many chronic illnesses), because of the strain put on the parathyroid to produce constant large amounts of PTH. Perhaps this warrants further consideration. Ivan -Original Message- From: Wetterauer, Letitia [MWPS] [mailto:lkwet...@iastate.edu] Sent: Friday, 11 April 2003 2:32 a.m. To: silver-list@eskimo.com Subject: CSRE: hypothyroidism - for Sharon You wrote: Can you expound on hypothyroidism? I do have it. But most of the docs I have been to just want to throw some pills at you and send you on your way, with no discussion on how best to live with it. I have my theories. Like that somehow it is connected to depression. And that strenuous exercise will help balance it. But these are just theories. Now I am worried that It will get worse if I take CS all the time. Is there a test to measure selenium Catherine? Dear Sharon, Hypothyroidism causes depression and one of the worst things docs do is throw antidepressants at women, which in themselves worsen hypothyroidism. It is known in medical literature that thyroid treatment can cure long standing intractable depression. Hypothyroidism has a major impact on brain health and function. Many new antidepressants interfere with thyroid function and T4 to T3 conversion. There are many sites that list the symptoms of hypothyroidism. Read Mary Shomon's Living Well With Hypothyroidism But, the sad thing is that I went for years and years misdiagnosed and suffered much health debilitation. Some signs are high cholesterol, weight gain, bloating, depression, low body temperature, cardiovascular disease, memory problems, digestive disturbances, sleep disturbances, and reproductive disorders from high estrogen. You can run a simple body temperature test on yourself http://www.lef.org/protocols/prtcl-104.shtml to see if your metabolism is slowed. In the old days, hypothyroidism was diagnosed by some good physical tests of muscle response, the person's appearance (hair quality, nail ridging, skin condition, weight, etc.), and the nature of their complaints. Current tests that you obtain from the doctors are not adequate because they do not detect all conditions that can make a person hypo. A person can actually have normal blood work and be hypothyroid. Most doctors only test TSH. This test is far from adequate due to ranges being too broad and the fact that a person can easily have normal TSH and be hypo from a problem in the brain TSH feedback system. At the very least, you should have a Free T3 and Free T4 test and in all tests you should be above the midline somewhere. The reason for this is because it is mostly hypo people who have thyroid tests which skews the ranges for what is normal toward hypo. TSH should be between 1.0 and 2.0 not 1.0 and 5.0. Exercise can be helpful, depending on the type of thyroid problem you have. If you have a thyroid system problem with normal test results and maybe thyroid hormone cellular insensitivity or resistance, then exercise can help. It is best done several times a day for short (10 minutes or a little more) intense periods. This helps keep the metabolism and body temps higher throughout the day. However, if you have been hypothyroid for a while, it is likely you have been overworking your adrenals. Then, exercise can pull the system down and make you feel worse. It also increases demand for thyroid hormones and if your thyroid cannot keep up, then you won't get a lot of benefit. The adrenals actually try to compensate for low thyroid hormones by raising adrenalin and with hypothyroidism more cortisol is needed to deal with the inflammatory processes that are caused by being hypo. Long standing hypothyroidism often results in adrenal fatigue or hypo-function. Adrenal fatigue itself is! associated with depression, lethargy, hopelessness and mood disturbances. Violent offenders have been found to have low adrenal hormones. A good tip is to go to the Wilson's Thyroid website http://www.wilsonssyndrome.com/ and find a Wilson's doc. They would be more likely to treat you not based solely on tests and they would be more likely to run more extensive tests. Mary Shamon's http://thyroid-about.com mentioned earlier is a very good site with many excellent articles and a doctor list. You can try supplements to help your thyroid and adrenals. Nutri-meds makes thyroid extracts which contain small amounts of thyroid hormones. Keep in mind that if you supplement with thyroid hormone and have adrenal fatigue, you are going to feel worse. In that case, you will need to help the adrenals with glandulars or hydrocortisone replacement. Tish -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

RE: CSAnthrax Comment - mesosilver
Frank, I notice you did not reply to the reference: Silver ion solubility in deionised water is 20-40ppb and in saline 2-4ppm. In the presence of microbes, silver ions bind to available enzyme thiol groups; thus altering the equilibrium and allowing more silver ions into solution. Silver is therefore available on demand to control microbiological activity. which is probably the most important piece of information in the whole debate. You go on to say: What in the body causes metallic silver to oxidize? They don't say. If you ever figure that out please let me know. Notice they claim that should a silver ion form as a result of oxidation, it immediately reacts with the available chloride ions to form the compound silver chloride. Which is exactly what I have been saying all along. Thereafter they speculate that bacteria consume the silver ions. However, their statement is self contradictory. If the silver ions form silver chloride immediately then there are no silver ions to be consumed by the bacteria. You can't have it both ways! It seems these fellows really don't have clue. You would be aware of the studies done by Dr Flick of SilverLon and others, who also state that silver metal dissolves to silver ions in the presence of biological fluids, and is available for interaction with microbes. Biological chemistry is a good deal more complicated than the simple 'add salt to silver ions and watch the silver chloride precipitate', which is really just a petrii dish experiment, and so is invalid by your own criterion. I would say that the weight of evidence is that silver metal does emit ions in biological fluids. Besides that, is it established that the silver ion as bound to chloride in silver chloride, is not available for further interaction with the sulphur groups as found in pathogens? It is likely that the silver chloride produced in biological systems is of extremely small particle size (because of the speed of nucleation) and is completely different to silver chloride as added to a petrii dish, and may have a far greater microbial interaction, due to the greater surface area of small colloids, which it has quite possibly become. One might also add that the fate of silver particles has not been established by you. Silver metal is tarnished by sulphide, one of the anions found in blood plasma. Can you say without doubt that these particles do not form silver sulphide? Indeed, can you say without doubt that these particles are not oxidised exactly as questioned by you in your message? No one can say with certainty what happens to silver solutions or colloids in biological systems except perhaps Stephen Quinto (and he is not telling), but it is quite clear that practically all forms of electro-generated CS work quite well.

CSMilk and heart disease, diabetes.
The correlation between drinking milk containing the A1 protein, heart disease, and type 1 diabetes seems very strong. Perhaps now the tenuous link between cholesterol, saturated fat, and heart disease can be severed. If saturated fat loses its unhealthy status hopefully the public will abandon unsaturated fat, or at least get a measure of protection from its oxidation in vivo, and the general health will rise. I know the linked article comes from a vested interest, but it is possibly the most concise précis of past and current studies. Regards Ivan. from: http://www.a2corporation.com/html/pdf/The%20Future%20of%20Milk.pdf ...Statistical studies on 16 countries including the U.K., France, West Germany, Iceland, New Zealand, USA, Canada, Finland and Ireland support Dr McLachlan’s work - the rate of coronary heart disease is highest in countries where A1 milk consumption is highest(9). Finland, as mentioned above, has the highest consumption of A1 protein in the world, the highest incidence of childhood diabetes, and, the highest rate of coronary heart disease in the world. West Germany: West Germany has among the most detailed knowledge of the diet and health patterns of its population. It has regional records of the breed of dairy herds dating more than 50 years. The incidence of A1 cows in herds varies from province to province - as does incidence of coronary heart disease. Schleswig- Holstein in the north, for example, has approximately twice the heart disease rate of Bavaria in the south. A1 levels in milk consumed in the north of Germany are also approximately twice as high as in Bavaria in the south. Dr McLachlan’s studies show a strong correlation between the regional rate of death from heart disease and the regional variation in the amount of A1 in milk. This same regional variation has been found in diabetes in young children.

RE: CSMilk and heart disease, diabetes.COMMENT
Thank you Brooks, I don't really know the detail of the lab studies done, and although there were studies comparing whey protein with casein and soy proteins I have no idea whether the source of the milk based proteins were pasteurised or not. However, the statistical studies are as you say, compelling, and taking into consideration the points you raise I guess the best conclusion one can derive is, that if one obtains their milk based intake from pasteurised sources, then avoiding those that contain A1 protein would be wise, and this may mean avoiding milk products altogether in many cases. My main interest in these studies and statistics, and the main reason I brought it to the list, was because of the almost perfect link between heart disease and the consumption of milk containing A1 proteins, not only between countries with completely different diets, but also across regions with very similar diets. The consumption of saturated fats and cholesterol seems to play no part in the rate of heart disease if these studies are correct, and validates the opinion of various researchers of fats and oils. This puts much of the medical establishment opinion to the test, and may eventually lead to a reassignment of the health dollar to more productive areas...and in my view that is very important news. I hold the view that the replacement of saturated fats with unsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats, has led to many chronic health problems.

RE: CSDesirable % of voltage decrease?
Sorry, Seemed to have made a few mistakes...in too much of a rush. To be clear. The initial statement is correct: Initial resistance in water (29.63V / 0.59mA) = 50K2 Ohms.[0.00059A and 50,200 Ohms] End resistance (27.6V / 5.95mA) = 4K6 Ohms [0.00595A and 4,600 Ohms] which showed a conductivity of 13uS (about 15ppm). That is a drop in solution resistance (as measured between the electrodes) of 54,800 Ohms, or a factor of 0.092. To corroborate this 'fantastic' drop in resistance (increase in conductivity) please note the equivalent resistance and conductivity values per cm as will be read by a standard conductivity meter: 1,000,000 Ohms = 1uS (about 1ppm Ag+ not including fudge factor) 250,000 Ohms = 4uS (about 4ppm Ag+) 100,000 Ohms = 10uS (about 10ppm Ag+) 76,923 Ohms = 13uS (about 13ppm Ag+) 66,666 Ohms = 15uS (about 15ppm Ag+) 50,000 Ohms = 20uS (about 20ppm Ag+) Hope I got it right this time :-) Ivan. -Original Message- From: Harvey Norris [mailto:harv...@yahoo.com] Sent: Monday, 17 February 2003 9:56 a.m. To: silver-list@eskimo.com Subject: Re: CSDesirable % of voltage decrease? --- Ron Cuthbertson r...@blissout.demon.co.uk wrote: Yes, (I presume you mean dividing 27.6V by 0.00595A), and yes I did mean 0.00595A or 0.595mA. 4K6 = 46,000 Ohms.

After the water recooled to household temperature this apparent voltage drop was not so evident. Today I started at 680 volts @ 8.5 ma, and ended 1 hr 15 min later at 540 volts @ 8.54 ma. Checking this same thing much later again showed the 680 volts, but at 8.38 ma? I also noted that exposing the water to very high voltage afterwards changed readings. That process is only a single electrode process where high voltage is placed between the bottom of the glass and the coins, so that no complete electrical circuit is across the water. This is a different process entirely unrelated to CS, and is used to procure a neon disharge for a Rife type treatment, from SrFe magnet windings under the steel plate the water glass rests on. This process also can produce prodigious ozone, with a buzzing noise made by the magnet. After 40 minutes, and reconnecting the process of AC conduction across the water: the new readings showed 740 volts across the coins, with a smaller conduction of 8.08 ma, after this glass of water from coins to bottom glass surface was exposed to an estimated 7000 volts in that process. Here are some jpegs of this Rife/Lakhovsky process Magnet windings under CS glass process http://groups.yahoo.com/group/teslafy/files/MED/Dsc00449.jpg Lakhovsky adaptation to Rife treatment (the magnet windings wire endings go to this neon part) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/teslafy/files/MED/Dsc00451.jpg Close up scoping of EM emmited by patients finger; .2 volts/div, 10 us/div http://groups.yahoo.com/group/teslafy/files/MED/Dsc00452.jpg It surprises me that such a lower voltage ending reading on the CS process itself could be caused by a temperature increase like that, as that seems opposite to traditional thinking of temperature vs conductivity. Even though these poor CS production aspects revealed themselves, I still note a grayish tarnish made on the coins, and after longer runs some surface water deposits. But I will go by what the experts say, the LVDC approach should definitely produce a correct product, and my opinions should be considered out to lunch for now... But first I will next try a fullwave DC bridge before the coins on this same process to see if similar things happen, as my diodes are rated for 600 volts, so I could be safe in trying runs at 70% of that voltage.

RE: CSVirus
Andy, You should try plain text, much easier to read. Regarding viruses and bacteria. A virus is an entity which has the sole purpose of replication. It may contain DNA or RNA which is the template upon which replication is founded. A virus will release its DNA/RNA into the cytoplasm of a host cell where the normal cellular building processes will use it as a code or template for the manufacture of the protein parts of which the virus is composed. When the time is right, the many copies of the protein parts will self assemble into complete viruses and leave the host cell, often taking a part of the cells own membrane as a coating. Infected cells are often destroyed in this manner, and the local immune response is often overwhelmed or even a target of viral infection. When the immune system is compromised, opportunistic bacterial infection may take hold (those bacteria which would, in the uncompromised host, normally be destroyed by the immune system as a matter of course). A bacterial infection can quite often include toxins exuded by it, usually as a defence against attack, which often are toxic to the host. Colloidal silver is quite toxic to most bacteria, and may even render some toxins benign, also silver may be toxic to viruses, through various mechanisms which might include an expression of greater numbers of white blood cells (invigorating the immune system), direct oxidation of the virus or bonding to certain viral proteins projecting from the viral coat and tagging it for disposal by the immune cells or rendering certain viral processes inoperable. Hope this helps your understanding of the matter a little.

RE: CSFrozen CS
Yes, you guys have it nailed. The higher the solute content of a solution the lower the freezing point. So when you freeze sea water to a certain temperature ice crystals will form, further concentrating the unfrozen brine and further lowering the temperature at which that brine will freeze. One must freeze sea water to -50C at which point 99.7% of the water has frozen, and 99.7% of the sodium and 95.5% of the chloride have precipitated. In the Popsicle a high proportion of the water of the sugary solution has frozen and concentrated the sugar and flavour to a syrup which is still liquid, but is found throughout the ice-lattice, held there by capillary action I suspect. Concerning CS, at some point the solution becomes so concentrated that the silver ions will precipitate out as a salt... silver hydroxide/oxide I guess. I wonder if that can be resuspended into an ionic CS again. If one heats silver oxide above 150C the oxide decomposes... to what metallic silver? Could one make a fine metallic silver powder this way? Mind you, it would take a lot of CS to make a gram of silver powder.

CSalpha-lipoic acid and acetyl-l-carnitine
Dave, The Juvenon product (brought to you by Bruce Ames http://www.chori.org/news2.html#news2 who has researched these substances) contains 200mg Lipoic Acid and 500mg Acetyl-l-carnitine. http://www.juvenon.com/product.html My view is that 250 - 300mg of Lipoic acid is good for a reasonably healthy person (double if diabetic). However, LA has a short half life in the human system, and is cleared from the cells quickly (2hrs). So I suggest dissolving in water and drinking throughout the day for maximum benefit (or taking a timed release version). The carnitine can be taken in the same manner. Brooks has found that a 'much smaller' dose of carnitine to be more effective, so I guess that could be less than half the LA dose. Expect you dancing a jig shortly.

The latest comments originate from the Linus Pauling Institute. Their claim is for an order of magnitude increase in effectivity..over either substance ingested alone. I was VERY interested in their commentssince we have prosecuted a series of mammal-based evaluations..using these very subsances in concert. Our results trackvery closelythose claimed by this Institute. We did not deem it necessary to undergo the expense of Blind Studies for such an exploratory-type investigation; we, none-the-less, have a substantive confidence there IS merit to this protocol. Through varying the proportions of the two compounds, we have arrived at a tentative assumption that-alpha lipoic acid is the most powerful progenitor in the combinationand is more powerful in results when combined with much smaller portions of acetyl-l-carnitine-than when the reverse conditions are manifest. The principal reason for our original interest was based upon our pronounced interest in addressing the challenges of age-related insults presenting in humans and other higher mammals.

I have found your previous messages on the subject of healing clays extremely interesting also, and I will investigate further as time permits, as I feel there must be some good clays here in New Zealand... there certainly are for potting, which was a hat I wore for some years in the distant past. NZ is quite thermally active, and there are a number of sites with bubbling mud pools and so on. I wonder if these clays would be worth investigating. The marriage of silver and healing clay sounds like a great idea from outside the square. Please keep us informed of your progress.

Unfortunately, the ORMUS products that are available that CAN be studied are not the same as Hudson's products. I had the privilege many years ago to examine some of Hudson's monotomic gold and Iridium - when Hudson's dream was still alive and fresh in the mind of those investing in his project. Holding the Iridium in your hand was like burying your hand in a large bin of sea salt for hours, only the feeling was hundreds of times more potent. I have always been interested in the monoatomic elements, as reportedly the healing clays are rich with them. This is one reason why I have been so diligent in attempting to find natural and unprocessed clays to study, as my understanding is that any processing of substances with monoatomic elements greatly effects them -- just like Aloe Vera. On a related note, I just had a wonderful meeting with Thierry Brunet and his wife from France, of the Buruli Busters ( http://www.burulibusters.com ) organization. His mother heads the non-profit relief effort in Africa, and he has been touring the world meeting with the top pelotherapy practitioners and clay scientists of the world. We have yet another recent documented case of severe mercury poisoning ( this one nearly lethal, with symptoms including comas, a stroke, and neurological abnormalities )being eliminated within one week of clay baths made with larger amounts of Montmorillonite, and Illite taken internally. Final questions remain on the best way to pull the mercury from the head/brain region, but all symptoms have been completely eliminated. Blood tests have been taken for a comparison, but the results are not back as of yet. An analysis will be done on the used clay itself, as well. I believe at this point I have sufficient evidence, although anectodtal, on the efficacy of silver as combined with clay against at least viral conditions, due to repeated successes done by comparing the action of silver alone, clay alone, and silver and clay combined against various forms of herpes breakouts. In the future, we hope to test the clay silver combination with the Buruli ulcers. Silver alone is not likely to be effective against this condition due to the fact that it is nearly impossible to deliver anything to infected tissues ( while in the beginning treatment stages ). Somehow, although no scientist or expert to date has discovered how, the illite, when placed on the body externally, is reaching the infection site through prolonged treatment. I believe that silver added to this mica clay, at least in the later stages of treatment, will vastly improve tissue healing, and may help to avoid the unpleasant side effects often encountered about mid-way through the treatment ( the immune system tends to breakdown and the individual can become quite ill for a period of time ). Such work on my end has been very slow going. I've been having problems identifying the difference in efficacy of the various clays, and think I've finally isolated one factor in the smectite class of clays: It appears that high sodium bentonites/montmorillonites are far less effective then their virgin counterparts when used on the body.

RE: CSBetr.: RE: CSaddendum to CS and my cold
Well Jef, I don't mean to make you anxious. I can't see why you would be, CS is a great arrow to have in the quiver and as far as I can see, is perfectly safe and very effective. The 'magic powder' (as my daughter calls it) is a micronised blend of beta glucan, C salts (potassium, calcium, magnesium), alpha lipoic acid, MSM and caesium chloride, in a powder form. I am thinking of adding L-carnosine and kelp, and perhaps a few other goodies. This is a pretty good immune potentiator and protectant, a blood sugar normaliser, with anti-oxidant and anti-aging properties =) I take 1/2 a teaspoon in water first thing in the morning, and add 1/2 teaspoon to a litre of water (with a little lemon juice for flavour) which I drink throughout the day. I might also add that I take 4000 IU of Vitamin D per day (divided by two) 500mg of cal/mag and two multivits, which rounds out my daily supplement intake. I don't mind if I miss a day or two here and there. I hope to eventually formulate a supplement that contains all the necessary ingredients to sustain (or achieve) good health (probably in two distinct powders or concentrated liquid form) which will be cheap to purchase and easy to take, and will do away with the need to consume a myriad of different tablets, and so increase the likelihood that people will stick with it long enough for it to do some good.

RE: CSPWT -- TDS COMPARISON
Thanks for your kind words George. Yes I did state that 0.57uS equalled 1ppm as silver (at 10ppm), but noted that this was a theoretical number. This multiplier holds true when one measures silver nitrate for example. However the measurement of colloidal silver in actual practice reveals a multiplier of about 1 to 1.2. I do not know why this should be so (perhaps we are measuring clusters of ions) nor why there should be a range of multipliers, other than stating the obvious that different processes produce different CS characteristics. In my own case the multiplier is about 1.0 (which is quite convenient), I produce 90% ionic CS. The only way to achieve accurate results, is to calibrate by testing for silver by another method and then if you keep your process the same your conductivity conversion factor should be pretty accurate. I am fortunate to posses a Silver Ion Selective Electrode which enables me to accurately measure the concentration of silver ions, with out the worry of interfering species, Cheers Ivan -Original Message- From: gallen4...@aol.com [mailto:gallen4...@aol.com] Sent: Friday, 29 November 2002 9:36 a.m. To: silver-list@eskimo.com Subject: CSPWT -- TDS COMPARISON Ivan, In the comparison of PWT -- TDS readings I posted on 11/18, the TDS readings are what the meter measured .

RE: CScolloidal silver vs colloidal gold
Hi Andy, Some might say that the white powder gold is the philosophers stone. Many powers are attributed to it and its sister elements. The Hermetic treaties are generally written in a type of code unfortunately, which makes it hard to take them at face value. It is said that the ancient Egyptians knew the secret, and the furnaces on the mount where the bread of life was baked, as found in the bible, were involved in synthesising the powder. I have heard it said that distilling colloidal silver causes the ORMUS silver element to pass with the distillate. Heady stuff, and something I would like to devote a little time to, if ever I have a spare moment. Regards Ivan Hi Ivan, Are the byproducts of the Philosopher's Stone what you were referring to? snip the white powder which transmutes the white metals to fine silver; the red elixir with which gold is made; the white elixir which also makes silver, and which procures long life-it is also called the 'white daughter of the philosophers'. Treaties on Philosophical and Hermetic Chemistry Paris - 1725 The above publication has detailed instructions for making The Elixir of Life. The earliest reference I have found is from Zosimus at the beginning of the fifth century but unfortunately, I don't have that transcript. I think that one would cost the long buck.

RE: CSThe essence of bioluminescense
Glenn, There are quite a few molecules (drugs) that are attracted to cancer sites and can be activated by light to form compounds toxic to cancer cells.

Do any of these techniques respond synergistically or compliment CS treatment? Actually, my interest is a bit more off topic as it relates to the active constituents of St. John's Wort in pursuit of an effective protocol using CS, St.John's Wort and light. I am now, thanks in large part to this group, making a very good quality CS. I have also harvested a quantity of St. John's Wort from the pristine heights of the Cascade Mts. where it grows out of rocks and is considered a noxious weed - displacing with its vigour - the native species. This points to a synergetic rebalancing of ecologies, from the mountain system to our internal system. (sounding a bit too spacey here, but the thought might provoke some interesting response and, true confessions, I am serious and do enjoy the broader speculation). A reading of a MedLine search indicates there are various and interrelated aspects to Hypericum that are fascinating. I have also seen some discussions in the archive relating to various light therapy. I would like to investigate light related techniques myself and so would appreciate input here - or elsewhere if too off-topic. I have read some summaries/abstracts that investigate the activation of immune response with light on Hypericum perforatum Linn (St. John's Wort). These immune responses seem to operate without light, but are much more active with the light response. St. John's Wort (SJW) is accepted as having antidepressant activity. It is also known to have an effect on the liver, increasing enzyme activity and the rate of certain metabolic reactions. In a related manner it has been investigated for use in cancer treatment because it is a photodynamic agent, one aspect being a photosensitizing agent, taken up and retained by tumor cells. When combined with the wavelength matching the absorbtion spectrum of the drug (hypericin), in the presence of oxygen, cytotoxic products result that cause irreversible cellular damage and tumor destruction. Or so says the abstacts. I am getting a bit fuzzy here in my understanding of the biomedtech terms, but it seems within reach to ask, what are the possibilities for using accessible photodynamic therapies (PDT) in conjunction with SJW? Has anyone here joined these modalities in thought or practice? I have scanned the archives so I know there is some interest in light therapy, and would greatly appreciate any pearls from luminaries within. It would seem to coincide with the benefits of CS. So, how would one make a photodynamic tool that will enable an experimental reaction with hypericum in vivo? Glenn -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

RE: CScolloidal silver vs colloidal gold
My take on the question. Colloidal gold and colloidal silver are two different fruit and cannot be compared. Silver is an antimicrobial first and foremost, with the ability to cause tissue regeneration if used correctly. Gold's major uses is as an arthritic treatment. Gold salts have been traditionally used, but come with side effects, whereas true gold colloids do not seem to bring this downside. There is some research which suggests some increase in cognitive abilities, at a dose of 30mg per day (which is a litre of 30ppm colloidal gold). As an antidepressant... I guess this is possible (although perhaps subjective) but as Lithium has this ability it is not out of the question. However, do not confuse colloidal gold with a solution for the soul and quote ancient passages (as some places do) which in fact refer to the White Powder Gold or Bread of Life or Mana (monoatomic or ORMUS). White Gold is a very elusive substance, and was the goal of ancient and modern day alchemists, and does indeed have powers that effect the 'soul'.

I don't know if particle size would effect the concentration. One method that's used to produce CG is an underwater high voltage arc between gold electrodes seperated by about 1/4. A neon sign transformer typically is used as it has the characteristic of being effectively current limited and able to produce enough voltage to keep the arc sustained. Commercial neon sign transformer are limited in the range of 20 to 120mA, with the most common units being 30 mA. It has been mentioned to me that 15Kv (15 thousand volt) neon sign transformer with 60mA capacity is what gives good results. These neon sign transformers have an alternating (AC) output. The high voltage (15Kv) would, I assume, start the arc, and then the neon sign transformer will adjust output voltage to some lower voltage to keep it's current limited output going through the arc. Electrode spacing apparently has some effect on current as well. In a previous post, it was said that keeping the gold electrodes small was required to sustain the arc. I believe, the arc, in effect, releases colloidal gold particles.

RE: CSRE: Colloidal Gold
Andy, Things change a bit when looking at electrolysis or galvanic reactions. The definition of anode and cathode, the anode is where an oxidation reaction occurs (the species loses electrons) and the cathode is where reduction occurs (the species gains electrons). As electrons cannot travel through water they must traverse from the anode to the cathode via connecting wires.

RE: CSCS RE: Colloidal Gold
Trem, There is no reason at all to suppose that gold will not reduce at the anode (as I have said more than once in the past). It is just like any other metal, excepting that it hangs on to its electrons with greater energy than any other. This is why it will not dissolve in seawater, there is no other metal strong enough to remove the gold electrons. Gold has a standard reduction potential of 1.5V above the reduction potential of hydrogen, so any applied voltage of about 3V and above should be enough to start the process. The trouble is of course that the production of oxygen gas is probably just slightly less than that of gold (1.45V) and it is quite likely that one would quite likely produce a lot of O2 in preference to gold ions. Another fact to note, is that gold is most stable as the Au+++ cation, and therefore requires three times the charge and three times the time, compared to silver. I have not undertaken any experiments with LVDC gold production myself, mainly because I do not trust the ingestion of gold ions to be safe (there is some info that suggests this) as opposed to gold colloids, the latter which cannot be made by the LVDC method.

RE: CSTDS/PWT meters
No worries Ken, they get us all every so often. I do agree with your sentiment for sure, I believe the way advertising is used is evil, and has its hand in the social and moral decline of our western civilization. Mate, I think turntables and valves sound best. Returning to measurement error and your ruler example. Yes the ruler is the same the entire range, start to finish, but imagine that we have viewing system that can zoom in and out, but only allows us to see 100 marks at a time +/- 2 marks. We zoom in so that we can see 100mm of this ruler, this is the 100mm scale ;-), we can see all the millimetre marks +/- 2 so our error is 2% of the full scale reading. Now we zoom out so that we can see 1 metre of the ruler, the metre scale. The 100 marks we can see (+/- 2) are centimetres and so our error then becomes +/- 2 cm which is also 2% of the full scale reading. Digital equipment works this way because one, there is a limited number of display digits, and two because they use limited digital to analogue converters which split the thing being measured into a finite number of bits. Your digital multimeter works this way. The error of an analogue meter with a swept gauge has a similar error, but this arises from the inability to print fine enough marks on the face as the scale gets larger and the ability to read them accurately. A ruler has the same problem, it measures an infinite number of points most of which we can't see.

Yes they could have said that for single range meters, but you ignore the explanation I gave for this... and is reported as percentage full scale (this is because some meters have more than one range and thus the full scale reading and error is altered accordingly)in other words the error for the range 0-99 is one tenth of the error for the range 0-999. This also has the added advantage of allowing the direct comparison between meters as to which is the most accurate.

RE: CSFw: My CS Setup.........
Tom, I posted a method for estimating CS concentration vs the change in conductivity of the solution as measured by the solution resistance. The idea I had was that the drop in resistance is equal to the rise in conductivity given by a rise in silver ion concentration. This change in resistance can be found by dividing the start voltage by the start current for the start resistance, and dividing that by the end resistance found the same way. The result of this would be a number very similar to the conductivity as found by a conductivity probe, and should then be multiplied by the uS to ppm factor for silver ions, which ranges from 1:1 to 1:2 or there abouts. Using your data, you would seem to have a concentration of about 18 - 20ppm. This method obviously has its limitations, not least being the homogenous dispersion of the silver ions, but gives a pretty good ball park figure.

I like to use constant current and resistance measurements to control the strength and gauge when a batch of CS is done. This is my procedure for making clear, duplicate batches of CS. I haven't had a yellow batch for years, and I don't get whiskers on the silver wires when brewing CS at this low current. (.4 ma, that's 400 microamps). I have not had the final CS tested for PPM strength. Writing down the procedure makes it sound involved, but this is one of those examples where doing it takes less time then saying it My Specs are: 40 ounces of distilled water (purchased) Silver, 12 gage, .999 pure. 5 inches wetted, 2 inch spacing. Current meter (on 1 ma scale) in series with power supply and silver electrodes, and voltage adjusted manually to achieve .4ma (400 uamps) current. My CS setup runs off a voltage adjustable power supply on a 30 minute timer. I add starter CS to the pure distilled water until the resistance is approximately 60,000 ohms, all resistance measurements taken off the silver wires as wetted. (Good distilled water starts out at about 200,000 ohms straight from the jug.) I run for 30 minutes at .4ma until the timer shuts off, then adjust the voltage back to .4ma current for the second 30 minutes. It takes about six 30 minute brewing sessions to make the 40 ounces to completion. I consider the batch done when the resistance is approximately 10,000 to 12,000 ohms.

Unless colloidal particles are actually touching, or perhaps very very close together, they won't register at all with either meter. The best you can do is guesstimate the particulate content with a laser pointer and add a fudge factor to the reading. Further, the Hanna people have seen fit to mix metaphors with their specs for the PWT. It says Range is .01 to 99.9 uS and Accuracy is +/- 2% Full Scale [but don't mention what full scale is] Now, you'd think that range and full scale would be the same thing, BUT, stick the PWT in water and add salt to see where the scale ACTUALLY pegs out. That would be at 999.9 NOT 99.9. If the meter were accurate to +/- 2% in its range they would have said it that way. Ken, Hanna's spec reporting is industry standard. Full scale and range are two different things. The range is a description of an interval of numbers in which the unit will perform within spec. Full scale (reading) is largest number within the range. Error in transducer output is normally minimised by processing the 'least squares best fit straight line' (normally greatest in the middle of the range) and is reported as percentage full scale (this is because some meters have more than one range and thus the full scale reading and error is altered accordingly). So the FUD is unfounded. The fact that the meter can read outside the range is of no consequence. More expensive meters would report an out of range reading in this event. That said, at least the meters are repeatable within themselves, but don't expect any two to read the same thing any more than two different laboratories have a tendency to tell you the same thing within +/- 10 PPM. If any two PWTs get within 10 microsiemens of each other, that would be very very good and at least somewhat accidental. I guess that state of the art means just thatArt Looks like an object. I asked my researcher friend about the discrepencies [He has a huge muliti million megabuck lab at his disposal including mass spectrometers, TEMs and such]. Basically, he says that to get any sort of 'accurate' measurement in the lower parts per million ranges, it takes huge samples and the averaging of several tests. ..and the term 'accurate' is STILL subject to definition. The absolute determination of ppm as silver ions etc. may be difficult, but the measurement of conductivity is not. Discrepancies between different meters can be overcome by multi-point calibration within the expected range. It's best not to use any those 'standards' to flesh out an arguement. [everyone will be wrong or if someone is right, no one will know who that is.] In our case, where there are no dosing standards at all and elimination/adsorption rates vary minute to minute, +/- 2% of 999.9 is OK. Well, you may be happy with +/- 20uS (+/- ~25ppm silver) as a reading but I certainly would not be, but your argument is false anyway as shown above. Your taste buds, a laser pointer and a 'strong...not so strong' resolution might do just as well. It's Not very objectively informative but well within the 'one glug or three' range of practical application.

Paul has led you astray a bit in his answer :-) Both the TDS (total dissolved solids) meter and the PWT (pure water tester) are conductivity meters. The difference is in the scale and calibration. A TDS meter is calibrated to convert the conductivity reading (micro-Siemens uS) to reflect the amount of dissolved calcium carbonate (in most cases) that would give rise to the conductivity measured. This calibration is about 1ppm TDS to 2uS for CaCO3. That would be fine if one could just multiply the ppm TDS x 2 to get the equivalent conductivity reading in uS, however, most TDS meters have a scale 000 - 999 ppm TDS, and generally have a error of 2% of the full scale reading. The error is therefore +/- 20ppm TDS or a range of 80uS, obviously too high if one is measuring a 10ppm CS solution which will have a conductivity reading of about 8uS. The PWT scale is much more suitable, being 00.0 - 99.0 and the readout is in uS. The error is +/- 2uS or a range of 4uS.

RE: CSBeta Glucan
Hi Paul, There is not as big a difference as the various manufacturers would have you believe. BG can be and is made from various raw products, mushrooms (maitake, shitake), oats, yeast (bakers, brewers), and so on, each has its proponents and detractors. But as long as the Beta 1,3 Glucan fraction is 60% or so then the product will be good. Other fractions are found in different concentrations depending on the source, yeast has Beta 1,6 Glucan for instance. Yeast derived Beta Glucan is the easiest to produce and has the highest Beta 1,3 fraction and can be found purified to greater than 90%, although it seems that products with lesser purity can actually promote a greater immune expression. I am happy with 70+ % Beta 1,3 Glucan. A product produced from yeast is probably the best bet for a decent BG content and a reasonable price. Some products may elicit a slighter higher response by being micronised to a very small size (0.2 micron), and some is soluble and suitable for IV injection (but is expensive). Fortunately both the soluble and particulate Beta Glucan is absorbed in the gut. Best taken on an empty stomach 30 mins before food and the action is enhanced by Vitamin C. The immune response to Beta Glucan seems to be a vestige of cellular development, given that both animals and plants display an immune response to its presence. It has uses as an additive to animal and fish feed, (not to be confused with the bacterial derived Beta Glucan which is inert as used as a food filler) and is proved for instance to prevent to a high percentage of infection in farmed fish. Must be good for pets and maybe the roses. As for brands... because I buy in bulk (kgs) I can't really help you, but hopefully you now have enough info to make a decision.

RE: CSbrewing parameters
Glenn 50mm spacing allows the silver ions to solvate and disperse, and limits dendrite formation on cathode. Are you in a hurry? The time required relates to the current passed, if you limit the current you extend the time required, but make a finer brew. Stirring lengthens the time required also. And of course the time depends upon the concentration required. I don't really know how long your set up will take, but I took a shot based on the bulk cs I have brewed.

The NEW Silver Solution - 4 oz bottle Image Hosting by auctionwatch.com Click image to view larger version Every supplement user dreams of a product that: is patented; has filed for drug approval; has filed with the EPA; has numerous universities and other independent laboratories backing its product with tests and information; has head to head comparisons against prescription antibiotics; has safety data; has done testing against bacteria and yeasts; and has even been tested for use in water treatment! RECENTLY APPROVED BY THE EPA AS A HARD SURFACE DISINFECTANT! AND COMPLETELY NON-TOXIC! What is the NEW Silver Solution? The New Silver SolutionB. consists of very tiny (about 10 nanometers long) particles of pure elemental silver suspended in a solution of very pure water, sold in bottles with concentrations of 12 parts of silver for every million parts of water (typically stated as 12 parts per million or abbreviated as 12 ppm) to 22 ppm. The NEW SolutionB. is a silver solution, that has a patented process of making the bacteria- killing - yet safe - small particles of silver. The NEW SolutionB. is the only patented silver product of this kind in the world today. The NEW SolutionB. is so effective at killing bacteria that even after being diluted to 1/200 of the original 10 ppm level, the NEW SolutionB. was still able to kill all the bacteria in raw river water in less than 20 minutes. The NEW SolutionB. has also been proven very safe to use. Even when tested at 200 times the normal adult dosage, the NEW Silver SolutionB. was found to be completely non-toxic. The NEW Silver SolutionB. is the only silver solution of this type on the market that has been proven both safe for use and very effective at killing bacteria. There are thousands of silver solutions on the market today, but there are none that have data that can compare with the NEW Silver SolutionB.. American Biotech Labs, the manufacturer of the NEW Silver SolutionB., has been able to accomplish numerous things that no other silver company has ever been able to accomplish before, including: Patented: This is the only colloidal silver producer with a product so new and effective that it was deemed a new product, and therefore approved for patent by the United States Patent Agency. The New Silver Solution has the only two patent approvals on a colloidal silver product in the last 80 years. The patent has also been filed internationally, as well as specifically in Japan. FDA: The New Silver Solution is the only colloidal silver product that has been able to be filed with the FDA for drug approval. The New Silver Solution has already received approval by the FDA to begin phase-two testing of the product. The New Silver Solution has been filed for use in both humans and pets. EPA: The New Silver Solution has also filed with the EPA for use as a disinfectant and has already passed all the required tests and is currently waiting approval. Testing: There are numerous independent universities and private laboratories that have been and are currently doing test work on the The New Silver Solution. Test work completed so far includes: antibiotic test comparisons; bacteria work; yeast work; safety and toxicity data; independent tests against other colloidal silver products; water treatment tests, etc. New Data: We are constantly striving to gain new and important information on the effectiveness and uses of its product. We currently have four new studies and a double-blind clinical trial currently underway, with several more studies already in the planning stages. The new studies include: major disease studies at independent universities and laboratories, a double blind clinical trial on mouth sores, an EPA surface disinfectant study for our EPA surface disinfectant filing, and a new series of water disinfectant tests from an independent certified water purification laboratory.

I have progressed since purchasing (unfortunatley) the CS-300 a couple years ago (too late to return) from not using it at all, to mud, to a clear or yelolow product w/o residue or apparent Ag compounds. First found good store bought distilled. Then found cheap, good distillationunit and ran my RO H20 through it. Next fish air bubbler. Instead of 8oz batch, increased to 1/2 gallon. This helped alot by increasing dispersion, decreasing current arc between electrodes. Then utilized the magnetic stirrer - much better than bubbler. Now I was cooking. The quality was good and controllable, and I was making more per batch. This is desirable since I wanted to take 8oz 2x day, a significant increase from 1-2oz/day. I have now been taking the silver for 10 months. Since I have been doing a few other things to combat the HepC and the symptoms are up down on off, there are few real quantitative measures. However, my liver function tests recently came back normal for the first time in 8 years. And some symtoms are less. I even had a 4 week period of feeling good. I optimistaclly thought I had beat it for good, period. Well, not so... yet. patience, yes? So, now intrepid Ag and alt health experimenters I come to the well again. I would like to take my overpriced unit designed for 8oz, making 1/2 gallon and make 1 gal at a time quicker. At this time I have reduced my first set of electrodes to mere wisps. I would like to know at what point folks change electrodes. And what do the efficient producers (read cheapskates) do with the Ag wisps? I am now brewing an 8oz batch with Zapper 2 Plus unit that has a silver jack on it and leads. I have never used this unit for Ag production before. Anyone familiar w/ these? Since I am ready to change the electrodes and want to make a gallon in a batch, what suggestions are there for electrode length? I have 1/8 .999 wire. The unit has a designed .8 distance between electrodes. Though I wish the CS-300 had current regulation- it does have an amber (conductivity/current?), green and red indicator lights. How could I adapt the unit? Another thought I had and will try is to use the appliance current regulating X10 module. I bought some of this stuff before it went crazy with popups and emails. But the stuff is cool. I just haven't used it lately. But I took it out and loaded the software and tested the current variation. The X10 module will take the current from 2-25DCma at 6-100% settings. These settings can be made to reduce at specific times, and then shut off. Obviously it does not respond to the production variations in current. Any suggestions on time/current settings?

RE: CSBritish Columbia on silver toxicity guidelines
Hi Dean, It's true that silver chloride etc. are less effective against pathogens, at least in the test tube, but whether the it is 300 times less effective cannot really be taken from this article. What they are reporting is the reaction of silver ions with the gills (I assume) of flathead minnows, which can result in the death of these fish. The availability of silver ions systemically in mammals, when introduced as silver salts or proteins, depends primarily on redox reactions between these and the attractive sites on the pathogen. In other words, how strongly the silver is bound to protein or as a salt vs. the pulling power of the (mainly) sulfhydryl groups upon bacterial cell walls. As thiosulphate is one of the reagents used to complex silver for uv/vis spectrographic concentration assays, it is not surprising that it has a very powerful bond and is 17,500 times less toxic than free silver ions, but it looks like silver will give up chloride in favour of sulphide and so may be available as a anti-bacterial. I guess that is somewhat obvious, considering that cs made with salt reportedly has positive results.

There's a really interesting paragraph near the bottom of the page.

Silver sulfide, silver thiosulfate and silver chloride were compared to the silver ion, added as silver nitrate. The tests were flow-through in soft water at 25 degrees C. Silver chloride was found to be 300 times less toxic, silver sulfide was 15,000 times less toxic, and silver thiosulfate was 17,500 times less toxic than silver nitrate.

RE: CSre: silver toxicity
There is a famous congressional report that supposedly proves that the soil has been leached of minerals in the last 100 years or so. All minerals have their origins in rock, and rock dust (of the appropriate kind) is the best fertiliser. Humic acids (notably fulvic) are powerful solvents, which leach out rock bound minerals, sequester them, and transport them in run-off and the water table for great distances. Plants absorb these minerals from the leachate and use them as part of their growth cycle. Certain plants have an affinity for silver, mushrooms and wheat come to mind, and hence silver finds its way into our diet. I am not sure that current populations are more healthy than previous, indeed, the incidence of cancer, obesity and heart disease are at epidemic proportions... but as you say, it comes down to diet.

RE: CSRe: CS and protozoa
Don, I appreciate your candour on this subject. However, you seem to have been a little blinded by the promise of colloidal silver, much like the people you now consider diehards and fervent believers. You sound a little like a reformed smoker ;-) Many of us on this list take the CS propaganda with a grain of salt and a groan, and do not believe it to be the panacea of all ills, but rather as just another tool in the shed. You have found CS wanting in some areas, and so properly took other approaches, but there is no doubt that CS does work in many areas as evidenced by many testimonials. It is particularly helpful in respiratory infections, even CS sprayed by an atomiser and breathed in has had good results, in my experience. Adding transport and solvent adjuncts to the solution, and ensuring the finest droplet size can help resolve the most intractable conditions, as has been reported. Of course, I am talking about human experimenters here, and I do wonder how one can get a bird or animal to breath in a CS mist in such a way as to bypass the air filtering mechanisms so that the CS can be deposited at the infection site. Even if this can be achieved, it is my experience that some fungal infections are the most unresponsive to colloidal silver, probably due to the nature of the growth (grows in air spaces without tissue invasion) and the nature of the cell (eukaryote), and it is here that a solvent such as DMSO can drive the CS into the fungal mass (a detergent/oil mixture may be effective also). A good that your testimony has provided, is a reminder that there is a lot of misinformation and rubbish available, and that one needs to choose their information sources carefully. Thanks for that.

Why don't we see all these things in lists published elsewhere where accounts of the wonderful effectiveness of CS alone is written about? Not being hostile just wondering why it is when the CS doesn't live up to muster all of a sudden a million other reasons for its failure are thrown out? The answer is no. The CS was used in a medical grade nebulisor and was given repeatedly to birds with severe to mild Aspergillosis infections in the lungs. To no avail! According to Dr. Bart A. Flick, in extensive tests, no bacteria was found that withstood CS in even very dilute solutions. One would assume they tried it against the most common pathogens, but not necessarily so. In vivo perhaps not? In Vitro on a plate I can understand this. As I think you suggested before, it might be effective on contact however, many testimonials do not specify this anywhere else? Usually a miraculous cure is reported from just ingesting the CS. Regarding: It plainly doesn't work on Isospora or Eimeria ( Coccidiosis species) despite what you may have read.

Rich, I guess it comes down to what you mean by runaway. The contrary to runaway is current controlled or limited, where the current reaches a certain level and stays at that level. The level is set to limit the amount of sludge (dendrites) being produced, and on the supplied example (http://www.hvacsilver.com/lvdc_cs.htm) this would be somewhat before Heavy Treeing on Cathode mark. However, this example uses constant stirring and therefore does not qualify as a constant voltage generator, but rather needs the constant stirring qualifier because the processes differ.

Pity that some of the info does not bare scrutiny, eg. the statement that undigested food is converted to fat is obviously contradictory. Meat (protein) is the most easily digested food, and the most useful, and the idea of limiting the fat intake, especially the saturated animal fat, is misguided, in my opinion.
