RE: CSThe color of silver

2003-07-15 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

This is great! There are many questions I would like to ask:)
 
 The mobility  of  ions   (movement   under   the

 electrical gradient) in aqueous solution is measured
 as m2s-1V-1.
 That is,  metres  squared  per  second  per  volt.
 Metres squared
 because of the relationship between mobility and diffusion.
 
 Silver ion Ag+ 6.4 x 10^-8
 Hydroxyl ion OH-  20.5 x 10^-8
 
 As you can see the mobility of ions is extremely
 slow,  0.02mm per
 second for  Ag+ at 30V. Notice that the hydroxyl
 ions  travels at
 three times the speed of the silver ion.

Yes, I  don't  see mist at the anode very often,  and

 they are taking.

   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.

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

 CSThe color of silver
 From: AScottSilver
 Date: Sun, 13 Jul 2003 22:26:01

I'm having way too much fun with CS.
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

You could  be correct, but regarding the strobe  flash,
  there are
170 odd  patents in the electronic flash
 classification  of which
only 55  are searchable by text. 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. I  don't
 know  if you
   remember me - I was the one with a lot of questions that
 you gently
   answered long ago:

RE: CS H2O2, ag(+), NaCl

2003-07-12 Thread Ivan Anderson
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...

Ivan.

If you have some brownish stuff that drops to the bottom when you're
making CS, it's sub-microscopic particles of silver surrounding tiny
bits of hydrogen.  You might also be talking about floaties, which
are microscopic particles of silver that are clumped together with
some oxygen bubbles to help them float (if the oxygen bubbles are
released, then they'll sink to the bottom).

Assuming you use good distilled water and .999 (or better) fine silver
*with no additives to help it go faster,* then none of the black,

different physical forms and are non-toxic.

RE: CS CS patented-complete link

2003-04-11 Thread Ivan Anderson
It is my understanding that the silver solution itself is not in fact
patented at all. It is nothing more than a HVAC produced solution as
produced by the method developed by Bruce Marx. Indeed, they site one
of his papers as a reference in the one patent I have seen. This
patent describes an apparatus for generating colloidal silver which,
in summary, and if I recall correctly, takes an existing design and
multiplies the electrodes so to make large batches.

You can make CS which could rival this product, with a little care.

I would doubt any difficulty in eliminating CS. That which is not
eliminated in the urine would be eliminated by the liver via the bile.

BTW, your sister may get some relief from her Crohn's disease by

There is not a problem with the particle size of yellow or even gold
CS. However, the darker and redder the CS is, the more likely that it
is not very stable, and will settle out.

That being said, I still have 10 Litres of yellow CS at 22ppm, that

Only add H2O2 if your solution is cloudy and unstable.

 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.

RE: CSAnthrax Comment - mesosilver

2003-03-05 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

 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.

CSMilk and heart disease, diabetes.

2003-02-21 Thread Ivan Anderson

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 McLachlanÂ’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 McLachlanÂ’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. There is almost no variation in
smoking or other risk factors for heart disease such
as saturated fats...

RE: CSMilk and heart disease, diabetes.COMMENT

2003-02-21 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

Regards
Ivan.

The chart is simply the resistivity and its corresponding

HOWEVER I made a run yeterday that measures 14.56 ppm

RE: CSDesirable % of voltage decrease?

2003-02-16 Thread Ivan Anderson
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 :-)

  Ron Cuthbertson
 I was confused about this also, but I think Ivan meant
 the 46,000 ohms.  Another part of the problem is also
 the fact that 0.00595 A is 5.95 ma, not the stated
 0.595 ma. This is why I noted that would be a
 fantastic increase of conductivity if it changed in a
 10 fold manner like that.

 I think I now concur with the rest of the group that
 this dual coin submerged, higher voltage AC approach
 is worthless. The decreases in voltage I observed were
 also accompanied by a heating of the water, thus the
 condensation under the plastic coin holder. 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/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

2002-12-16 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

Regards
Ivan.

RE: CSFrozen CS

2002-12-16 Thread Ivan Anderson
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

2002-12-09 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

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

Okay. I have a question for anyone that can explain...

Perhaps this is a silly question. How exactly does a nebulizer work?
How does it create the mist that is inhaled into the lungs? I was out
shopping for Christmas over the weekend and thought I found an
effective and cheap device to get CS into the lungs. Now I think that
in my excitement and haste I screwed up by overlooking a simple
insight. The device I bought it one of those things that creates the
mist (steam) by heating up the liquid. Now I kind of have the feeling
I paid 10 bucks for something to distill all the CS out of my already
distilled water. :) Is this what is happening to my silver in my steam
device? It now makes sense to me that I am probably defeating my
purpose. I am sure the silver falls into the catagory of heavies when
it comes to heating the water up to a boiling point. All the silver
would be left behind in this process, wouldn't it?

RE: CSA unique CS applicator?

2002-12-03 Thread Ivan Anderson
Nice find...nice units.
Looks like some of the systems use skin penetrating electrodes. The
DermaSeptic I guess has a central silver electrode (anode) surrounded
by a circular cathode or visa versa

Antiseptic treatments can be administered at pre-programmed intervals
or (as a pre-treatment) whenever the transcutaneous device is
accessed. It is this control of ion density, through active
penetration of tissue that Klearsen Corporation is offering in its
Active Antisepsis T systems.


For wound care applications, Klearsen plans to use the same
integrated circuit controller that is used in the DermaSeptic to drive
a disposable bandage suitable for large area wound protection and
antisepsis. This bandage could find ready application to burns, Herpes
Zoster (shingles) and eczema conditions which are too large to be
conveniently treated by the DermaSeptic.
Surprised if they aren't infringing Becker's patent here.

Patent Application 20020161323 gives an in depth description on how
this might be achieved.

RE: CSH2O2 and CS, cloudy?

2002-12-02 Thread Ivan Anderson
Jason and Paula,

You don't need to have silver flakes, any elemental particles will be
ionised by H2O2. The process generates O2 gas, and it is these very
tiny gas bubbles which turn the CS cloudy or turbid. They will
dissipate in time, and if you have added enough H2O2, the CS will
become a crystal clear solution of dissolved silver ions.

Ivan.

Chances are you had some tiny silver flakes in your colloidal silver,

the silver down, and thus can cause turbitity.  A slightly yellow
colloidal silver without any silver flakes will rapidly turn upon
adding the H2O2.

Well, it depends upon how much elemental silver is in your CS. just
start with a few mL and let it sit over night. End result should be

Whether the CS is improved by this would be debated by some

   Hello,
  
  From the time I first started making my own CS I have
   occassionally had it tested at our local college.  {atomic level
   tests}  My latest tests that I had them do was to see if indeed
   whether or not H202 mixed at 1 drop for every 2 ounces
 did actually
   decrease the partical size.  I had three tests done:
   1. First a test on 1 gallon of my CS unaltered.
   2. A test on a second gallon  of my CS after adding 64
 drops of H202
   [I ordered this test to be done within 30 minutes of
 adding the H202]
   3. A test on a third gallon of my CS after adding 64
 drops of H202
   after waiting for at least 24 hours.
  
  
   I have not received yet the paper showing partical
 sizes..but I
   did talk to them on the phone. First of all my CS
 unaltered was 75%
   ionic and measured 18 ppm.
   Tests 2 and 3 were dramatically differentnumber
 2 was 88%
   ionic and 3 was 100%.  This actually proves what I had
 suspected: that
   the reaction actually takes much longer to complete
 than what I had
   originally been told.  I suspected this for 2
   reasons...first..the older my CS got after
 adding H202 it had
   less of a tyndall effectand second.the
 older it gets
   after adding H202 the stronger it tastes.
   I have some mixed H202/CS that is more than 2 weeks old
 and it hasn't
   precipitated or shown any other signs of going
 badanybody
   who doubts the advantage of adding H202 should have
 their own tests

Thank you for a most informative and interesting post.

 Indeed, mysteries prevail...  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.

 Kind Regards,

 Jason

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.

Probably more than you wished to know... but I hope I covered all
bases.

 Yes,
 Wrong assumption, no doubt fuelled by overzealous reports and over
 hyped sales pitches.
 Colloidal silver can only protect you from those pathogens it can
 contact, so nasal infections can be expected.
 The method, amount and period of administration will also have some
 bearing upon the amount of silver presence in the blood,
 i.e. a little
 many times throughout the day will result in prolonged
 availability as
 opposed to a single large dose.

 Personally, I do not rely on silver as a defence mechanism,
 preferring
 instead to bolster and hone my immune system by taking my 'magic
 powder' dissolved in my drinking water. CS is brought into action on
 the rare occasion that I actually develop an infection.

was declared the these unusual elements (to say the least) would
indeed distil with water vapour.

I filed it away for future reference, and hereby apologise to that

I guess the only way to see if this might be true is to try it, but

RE: CSPWT -- TDS COMPARISON

2002-11-29 Thread Ivan Anderson
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,

  In the comparison of PWT -- TDS readings I posted on 11/18, the TDS
readings are what the meter measured . What I multiplied by .57 was the raw
reading of the PWT.  Thus:
PWTTDS
30 x .57 =  17.10 16
19.49 x .57 == 11.11   10
27.49 x .57  =  15.67   14

  For the PWT results: where the third decimal place was more than 5, I
rounded up.

  In response to my posting, someone responded that you had changed the
multiplier from .57 to 1.2 Is this correct?

  I believe there are a good number of non-technical types like me on the
list who would find an explanation by you of how to achieve accurate PWT
readings as useful as are most of your other posts.

Hi James,
Unfortunately, any H2O2 that remains unused will interfere with the
reading, making it higher than it should be.

Yes,
Wrong assumption, no doubt fuelled by overzealous reports and over
hyped sales pitches.
Colloidal silver can only protect you from those pathogens it can
contact, so nasal infections can be expected.
The method, amount and period of administration will also have some
bearing upon the amount of silver presence in the blood, i.e. a little
many times throughout the day will result in prolonged availability as
opposed to a single large dose.

Personally, I do not rely on silver as a defence mechanism, preferring
instead to bolster and hone my immune system by taking my 'magic
powder' dissolved in my drinking water. CS is brought into action on
the rare occasion that I actually develop an infection.

I have not tried distilling CS, one day I will, but as for taking

 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.

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. (^_^)

 Can anyone here shed some light on any of the theraputic
 techniques that use
 light for virus treatment (or bacteria,cancer, etc)?  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?

   From the time I first started making my own CS I have
occassionally had it tested at our local college.  {atomic level

whether or not H202 mixed at 1 drop for every 2 ounces did actually
decrease the partical size.  I had three tests done:
1. First a test on 1 gallon of my CS unaltered.
2. A test on a second gallon  of my CS after adding 64 drops of H202
[I ordered this test to be done within 30 minutes of adding the H202]
3. A test on a third gallon of my CS after adding 64 drops of H202
after waiting for at least 24 hours.


I have not received yet the paper showing partical sizes..but I
did talk to them on the phone. First of all my CS unaltered was 75%
ionic and measured 18 ppm.
Tests 2 and 3 were dramatically differentnumber 2 was 88%
ionic and 3 was 100%.  This actually proves what I had suspected: that
the reaction actually takes much longer to complete than what I had
originally been told.  I suspected this for 2
reasons...first..the older my CS got after adding H202 it had
less of a tyndall effectand second.the older it gets
after adding H202 the stronger it tastes.
I have some mixed H202/CS that is more than 2 weeks old and it hasn't

who doubts the advantage of adding H202 should have their own tests
done.  I'll post all of the numbers when I get them in the mail.  Robb

RE: CScolloidal silver vs colloidal gold

2002-11-25 Thread Ivan Anderson
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 believe CG's colour should be pale purple through red and
 then to deep
 blue with increasing gold concentration. 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.  This
 method also uses distilled water that's  cooled and kept in
 motion during
 the process; a bit different than the process described by akaJhon.

 BTW, I've received many responses to my query about
 creation of a colloidal
 gold discussion grup. They are all encouraging me to setup
 this list, so
 I'll proceed. It's been suggested by several that
 moderation is essential
 for such a group for various reasons. More details to follow.

 Thanks!

used the .57 conversion multiplier which Ivan developed.

I think it was Ole Bob who pointed out that accurate readings  with
these meters requires repeated tests with large quantities of liquid.
For the small quantities that most of us make, the readings are only
approximate. If my comparison is valid, since the difference between
the readings is so small, never reaching 2, is it worth investing in
the higher-cost PWF?

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. The gold anode is held at a
positive potential which sucks electrons from it, oxidising it to
positive gold ions, which then travel to the negatively charged
cathode where they will eventually plate out, regaining the electrons
that they lost.

Hi Trem,

Regarding your below response, gold doesn't tarnish, rust or oxidize
very well. That's why it's okay after it has been lost at sea and
recovered. I think it will eventually disintegrate through
electrolysis though. Try gold plating something like a car bumper.

Also, I think you might have your polarity back assward. The cathode
is the emitter and the anode is the collector. Remember vacuum tubes?
The electrons fly off of the negative charged cathode towards the
positive charged anode.

Hope this helps,

RE: CSCS RE: Colloidal Gold

2002-11-21 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

 Hi Ivan,

 Thanks for your information.

 I must admit to my ignorance of chemistry.  My knowledge is
 more in the
 electronic field and others.  What I don't understand is
 why I have never
 been able to dissociate gold atoms using LVDC and others
 say they have.  Do
 you think that bubbling or stirring may prevent the
 formation of oxygen
 around the gold which protects it from disintegration,
 thereby allowing
 dissociation?

 Thanks for your input.  Wish I was more intelligent in that area.

RE: CSTDS/PWT meters

2002-10-29 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

Hopefully you will think a little better of your Hanna meter.

  Now these are major companies with , uh, ethics..right?

  When Hanna failed to mention that the full scale at 999.9
 was not the same
 as the operational range of 99.9, I lost quite a bit of
 faith in them. How
 does one attach a value to something without mentioning
 what that something
 is despite its obvious importance to qualifying the value?
  If you have a one foot ruler with an accurate range within
 the first inch,
 the full scale is one foot no matter how fuzzy the lines
 are after one
 inch. If then, you state that accuracy is related to the
 whole ruler, what
 leads one to assume that the first inch is any different
 than the whole
 ruler?  Is it the fact that they failed to tell you how
 long the ruler
 was...implying that it was only an inch long, by ommission?

  When I discovered 'all on my own' that my ruler was ten
 times longer than
 they implied it was and clearly attached accuracy to the
 whole thing...not
 just the first inch, it left a lot of questions about how
 well it works
 when attaching accuracy to the range rather than the scale
 would have made
 it very clear.
  Reads accurately within +/- 2% in an operational range of
 99.9 uS with a
 full scale of 999.9 uS  What's so hard about that? One
 lousy sentence says

  The way they DID state it says lawyer all over it.
 Lawyer means 'who

 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

 the time depends upon the concentration required.

Not sure what your spray about lawyers butts, PhD's etc. has to do
with the interpretation of error in conductivity measurements, your
world clearly is confused.

But surely not so confused that the difference between a range and a
full scale reading is not clear.
You say: It would have been easy to have stated accuracy as +/- 2%
within it's intended range ...not full scale. which would make
full scale irrelevant, but they didn't.

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.

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.
 You just said that range and scale are not the same thing, then,
that they are.
It would have been easy to have stated accuracy as +/- 2% within it's
intended range ...not full scale. which would make full scale
irrelevant, but they didn't. Why would that be?
Perhaps Industry Standard 'Reporting' is as full of butt covers as a
lawyers closet.
A covered butt can still toot in tune, [especially if faced off with a
tuning fork before each performance] it just doesn't 'have' to.
The PWT does perform as we apply it better than expected but it's far
from perfect. [it's not 'just' the meter]

CS is a very weird sort of water. The conductivity changes even in the
same batch. The very act of measuring it seems to change it. [OK, call
it stabilization. Will any two batches stabilize the same?]
The PWT might be great for testing salinity. Saline solutions are
pretty stable. CS? Who knows?
Are we mixing our own metaphors? [Absolutely! Measuring apple sauce to
see how many oranges there are.]

I have not been 'happy' with ANY of the methods for measuring PPM
including the various ways that labs do it. I also know it doesn't
matter that much as long as we stay within a nebulous range of common
sense.
We're not feeding it into a computer. It doesn't take a furniture
maker to adequately frame a house.
I won't let something like that ruin my day. It's just no big
deal..like an apple to an elephant.
But it does take some explaining to those who want precise numbers and
can't get them.
People expect and demand certainty and tend to get certainty from
people who will give it to them whether or not there really is any.
Then they wonder why so many people say so many different things and
why their results don't exactly match any of the statements.
Not enough butt covers leads to em-bare-ass-ment? {Sure. That's the
way the real weird world of comparisons works}

Does PHD stand for piled high deniability?

The mountain, to the ant vs the elephant, is but a matter of relative
time and awareness. Neither probably gives a hoot, being focused on
eating the apples and oranges found along the way. But an apple to an
elephant is a morsal while it's a mountain of food to an ant.
[something worth fighting over]

Moral to the story:
The CS you like the best is the best CS.
If there's some way to make something different, 'that' may become the
best CS that you like best.
Batch to batch repeatability is more important than person to person
comparison. In that, a Hanna meter does OK and the PWT does that
better than the other Hanna meters no matter what the specs say or how
they read.
It would seem that everything having to do with CS is subjectively
relative, CS still does what it does and it's hard to hurt yourself
with it if ANY degree of common sense is employed.
Common sense doesn't rely on specific numbers.
Being 'more right' doesn't make anyone totally wrong.

The world is clearly confused. Why not admit that nothing is what it
looks like?

Hi George,

The theoretical relationship between conductivity and ppm as silver

However, in practice it has been found that a 1:1 relationship (uS to

elaborate a little here.

RE: CSFw: My CS Setup.........

2002-10-27 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

 Subject: My CS Setup10-26-2002


 CS Group,
 I've been making CS for 4 or 5 years and have settled
 on this procedure. 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.

 Someone on the silver list once published a CS strength in PPM
 vs resistance in ohms. If that comparison is still
 available, I'd like to
 see it again. Any questions, feel free to e-mail me directly.

 Stay well,

  Both TDS meters and the PWT do the same thing the same way.  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.

 No matter how tall a mountain actually is, no matter if
 it's measured from
 sea level or it's lowest accompanying valley in millimeters
 or feet.
 the top is still the top and it still looks like a mountain.

RE: CSTDS/PWT meters

2002-10-25 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

Subject: CSanother matter


thanks for some understanding on the tds/pwt meters but, once
again the newbie needs some advice... i posted this on another cs
board, but as of yet i've had no response, so i'd like to pose it here
too:  about 2 months ago we
purchased the cs300 to produce our own cs, but soon found out that
making 8oz. at a time was too time consuming, esp. when we were using
large quantities ourselves, and giving it away to family and friends
by the gallon (great reports by the way)... anyway, within a month i
knew our needs far exceeded this small unit's output unless i was to
spend every minute brewing cs... so, a month ago we purchased a cspro
to make a gallon at a time... this has been wonderful, and out of my
first 5 gallons, i've given 3 of them away... today i went to brew
another gallon for ourselves (the 6th) and i noticed that the rods
were not looking the same as with the first 5 gals lots more of
the dark stuff, none of the 'smokey' silver in the water, etc... i
realize the 'tds' meter doesn't register the true ppm, but i do use
it as a comparison guage, and was getting a reading of 000 to 001
after 15 mins now 15 mins. would normally bring me a brew of 10
or better... anyway, here's my question(s): how many gallons should
i be getting from .999 silver 12 guage wire? is the wire solid
silver or overlay, and when the coating is gone, does the black flaky
stuff appear? in cases such as this do i brew it longer, or do i
just replace the silver rods? i was thinking i could supply everyone
with tons of cs, with such a minimal cost (and i guess it still is,
considering a gal. goes for about $75.-$100.)... this new generator
is so great, but i did think i'd get more than 5-6 gallons from one
set of silver rods... please give me some indications as to
what 'normal' is where the lifespan of the silver rods are concerned,
as i certainly don't want to be throwing them out if there is still
life in them... but, i don't want to brewing stuff for 45 min. just
to get the ppm up either... i know that i must certainly invest in
a 'pwt' meter, and will do so as soon as i can come up with the
funds... you're input is greatly appreciated as always... in advance,
thanks! deb

I meant to add that neither meter will measure true colloids, as they
are both not dissolved and do not carry a charge, other than that of
the ions that are adsorbed to the colloid surface. Conductivity meters
measure ions only.

 Subject: RE: CSTDS/PWT meters


 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.

 Regards
 Ivan.

Hi Kevin,

May I suggest you purchase some Beta Glucan, capsules or powder. Beta Glucan
will increase the numbers and efficiency of certain members of your immune
systems cells, particularly the macrophages, which are the immune cells
which neutralise and dispose of microbes and toxins, and dying or mutated
cells. A Beta Glucan potentiated immune system is able to cut through the
disguises that certain pathogens and cancers are cloaked in, and Beta Glucan
will improve the effectiveness of other treatments.

A maintenance does of 100mg per day (on an empty stomach), and therapeutic
dose of 300 - 500mg beta glucan should be accompanied by double the amount
of Vitamin C as the two work synergistically.

RE: CSBeta Glucan

2002-10-25 Thread Ivan Anderson

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.

Email me if you need more help.

RE: CSbrewing parameters

2002-10-19 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.
I presume you have some sort of testing equipment?

Why the 50mm spacing? Does that serve to limit arcing? My generator

clips. I'll cut the silver to match both the 1/2 and 1 gal containers
in length They are approx the same depth.  I'll closely monitor the
brewing current as it progresses and use constant stirring as before.
That way I can program the %current reduction with some accuracy.
With the 1/2 gallon container  and no current limiting and a shorter

 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.

You want your electrodes to be as long as possible, without touching

In the Age of Anacronym

Thank you all who respondeed afew weeks prior regarding the Model
CS-300 and Hepatitis C input...much appriciated.

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?

sorry to hear about this lad, might I suggest you look at these eye
drops:
The first has the remarkable ingredient N-Acetylcarnosine, a dipeptide
with proven regeneration and antioxidant properties. This substance
has been used to reverse eye problems, including cataracts and
glaucoma (not announced yet). It has had much serious study.
http://www.antiaging-systems.com/a2z/carnosine.htm

Another eye product containing NAC as they are calling it, plus other
ingredients and which might be a better bet:
Bright eyes  http://www.lef.org/prod_desc/item00558.html

LEF are out of stock it seems but other sites which carry these drops:

 Subject: CSOff Topic. Eye problem


 About this time last year a friends young son (26 years)
 noticed a blank
 spot in the centre of vision on one eye causing some loss
 to forward vision.
 The experts were unable to find a cause but the problem was
 not unheard of
 and they assured him it would not happen to the other eye.
 A few days later
 it did just that but to a lesser degree. Eye specialists
 said the blind
 spots were caused by an inflammation, from an unknown
 cause, at the back of
 the eye causing scar tissue to form hence the loss of
 vision in that area.
 Blood tests showed up nothing untoward.

 As things stabilised about this time it was put down to a
 virus (they
 thought) and he was told he was just unlucky to have
 suffered the problem
 but he was now over it.
 Wrong again as last Friday the symptoms returned and he's
 now lost more
 vision. At this point in time I can't be more specific but
 will pass on any
 more information as it comes to hand.

 I'm now wondering if anyone out there has ever experienced
 anything like
 this and/or does anyone have any recommendations as to a
 treatment that may
 help this poor guy.

 Many thanks,  Roger B

RE: CSBritish Columbia on silver toxicity guidelines

2002-10-13 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

 Good find, Mike!

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

 The effect of speciation on the acute and chronic toxicity
 of silver
 was compared using the fathead minnow as the test organism. 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.

 This could be another reason not to add salt to distilled water to
 speed up the process, if it's 300 times less effective against
 microorganisms.

RE: CSre: silver toxicity

2002-10-13 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

1,3 Beta Glucan, active ingredient of many alt health remedies;

Protective against and reverses the effects of nuclear radiation and

ailments, and just about any disease you can think of. Probably the
closest to a silver bullet there is, because it increases the
effectiveness of the immune system.

Most of my clients are taking beta glucan... I can't get enough of the
stuff!

It is a major component in all my topical creams, from sun-care to
rejuvenation, am even formulating toothpaste, soap, and shampoo with
beta glucan.

I have found that a small amount in colloidal silver boosts the cs
effectiveness when nasal spraying or nebulising. I have been
micronising the supply I get so that I don't have problems with
settling out, and get better absorption... but even without this
(shake the bottle) I have been getting great results.

JBB,

Any silver salt or compound could be thought of as non-metallic.
Indeed, silver bonded to a molecule containing carbon would be called
organic. Metallic properties don't develop until a certain number of
silver atoms are bonded together. Nano-sized particles of silver or

metal.

RE: CSRe: CS and protozoa

2002-10-08 Thread Ivan Anderson
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.

Ivan.

Hi James,

First, before I answer the questions as best I can I want to get
something off my chest! Please indulge me a bit?

The events I have given here regarding my research using CS in animals
and birds has elicited the reactions I expected from a great many
diehards who are so fervent in believing that CS is the end all to
modern mans medical problems that they will not give in to any
scientific proof whatsoever! So be it! I wanted to be a total convert
also once upon a time but my personal drive always leads me to want to
prove it to myself without just swallowing everything one reads on the
net! I fortunately had the means to do this recently and I was not
happy with the results but I am convinced that they are accurate and
to the best of my knowledge followed many of the printed protocols
that are so commonly handed out on the net as well as in books etc.
What amazes me now is all of a sudden so many are telling me after the
fact, that I must not have done the experiments right or used the CS
correctly or didn't know how to make it etc etc. Nonsense, I have
followed the instructions and gone ! the second mile to do so! Do I
doubt that CS is effective at all? No, I know it works in some cases,
I have had it work on some things myself. What I do resent is that all
of a sudden my poopooing CS effectiveness  has drawn out the minions
of believers who have never tested it really other then anecdotally!


Hi Don,

Did any of the tests using CS against lung infections include CS and
MSM or DMSO nebulized with O2 and inhaled?



James, why now is it necessary to add all these things to make it
effective? 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.  And, we have
found it to be absolutely useless used on Upper respiratory conditions
involving E.coli and other bacteria. Salmonella infections of the

Is more detail available about how you came to that conclusion?  Are
there specific studies?

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. Stop the stirring and
then the current, I suspect, will rise exponentially (to a point) and
the CS will eventually become a dirty grey.

That, is what I understand current runaway to mean.

This Swiss diet looks like a low carb diet with the unusual idea of
spitting out some of the most important parts of the meal.
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.
It is not fat that makes you fat, it is the carbohydrates.

I suggest those that might consider this diet should read this article
about the origins of the low carbohydrate high protein / fat diet, and
its continuing success without needing any special care, special
supplements, or meal time mumbo-jumbo. :-)

It is a good read!

 This group is a lot like family for me, so I find it hard
 to not pass on what I
 find as vital or at least interesting information of some
 importance.

 Remember our friend Dr Jon?
 His latest project has been to acquire the modus operandi
 of a Swiss fat farm
 that charges ten grand per client with apparently great results.

 There is a multi supplement to take along with some strange
 procedures to
 follow, therefore the fat camp regimen is probably the
 easiest way to assure
 compliance.

 I looked up all of the supplements and discovered that they
 were desirable for
 heart health (one of my problems) so I could be induced to
 try them anyway.
 The diet is not Atkins, but has similarities.

 He has made the formula and plan available to volunteers to
 see if there is any
 merit to it. Kinda half a**ed clinical trials.
 Our  only obligation was to report results and how we
 complied or not with the
 plan.

 Now, personally, I'm a hard case.
 I have an opinion and I'm seldom shy with it.
 I have had zero success in losing weight over the last
 three or four years since
 retirement.
 I refuse to exercise anymore. 15 years of 3X week martial
 arts is enough.
 Especially since I started at age 45.
 What part of retired is not understood?

 I refuse to go hungry! Living well is the best revenge.

 I started with this by acquiring the individual supplements
 and following, in
 general, the plan.
 Much to my surprise, I had an initial loss of six lbs the
 first week, with
 another four gone over the following two weeks.
 Horrid plateau time since then until today. When I weighed
 in, another five are
 gone.
 This whole span has been about six weeks. I am ecstatic and
 feel the need to
 share!
 I had not been able to move off the dime in 4 years, and
 now half my goal is
 accomplished.

 Dr Jon says that he has gotten enough positive feedback
 to warrant  continuing
 the formula and opening it to the general public.
 I said, public be damned, this goes to family.

 Details for those interested at: http://www.swiss.9f.com
 Do as you will.

 Any discussion should go to the OT list. I wanted to make
 sure everybody saw
 this though.

 Errr... Jon bashers can look for the sprig of mistletoe.

 I don't exercise, it makes ice jump right out of my glass.
