CSIMPORTANT COMMENT; Liposomal Encapsulation
Several list members have experienced difficulty in obtaining reliable, accurate indications of the actual encapsulation percentages..using the Do It Yourself technique which I outlined in an earlier post. NOTE: The methodology outlined IS NOT RELIABLE as a true indication of achieved encapsulation levels of vitamin C. The ONLY truly reliable means of, accurately, knowing the degree of encapsulation is via Electron Microscopic observation. This entails preparation protocols/equipment beyond means of most personseven most laboratories. In my enthusiasm to avail list members of a "SIMPLE" protocol, which had yielded results reliable enough to validate useful parametersI outlined a test which is NOT TRULY INDICATIVE of the encapsulated Vitamin C content. For those of you who followed my instructions for making a general determination of the approximate, percentage levels of encapsulation, the discrepancy in resultsyou may have achieved, ARE NOT YOUR FAULT and did not result from a "broken protocol" on your part. Partial Explanation: There are just too many variables involved (volumes/strengths/ratios) of the reactive materials, especially bicarbonate and ascorbic acid fractions presenting. Just varying the velocity of mixing can result in "marked" differences of the gas-release reaction. The gas generation is NOT a true reflection of the percentage of non-encapsulated Vitamin C fraction. While my intentions were of the highest order, my information was incomplete and poorly constructed. For this, I deeply apologize. Although some may be able to replicate my results, the protocol proper, is too unreliable for general application. However, all is not lost. There is a VISIBLE, indicator of the general success of the experimenter's procedure. We HAVE determined, via electron microscope examination by an associated laboratorythat almost any solution achieved using the simple procedures outlined in my original post for producing encapsulation.yields >50% encapsulation. One excellent indicator is the degree of "apparent homogenization". That is, the uniform, milky, appearance..and its "long-term" (days) retention. I have no defensible excuse for my errortherefore, must appeal to the graces of the list membersfor understanding. Sincerely, Brooks Bradley. P.S. I would be remiss if I failed to encourage ALL OF YOU to continue your researches addressing use of this most promising protocol for encapsulation. The majority of our investigations have yielded VERY powerful positive results. -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.

Re: CSIMPORTANT COMMENT; Liposomal Encapsulation
Thank you for explaining, Brooks. The end result of my encapsulated Vitamin C liquid has been a milky homogenization from what I started with. I think this is then perfect for our daily consumption.

Re: CSIMPORTANT COMMENT; Liposomal Encapsulation
I tried the protocol again - this time with a new Ultrasonic cleaner. It worked beautifully! There was no visible separation after sitting overnight. I did the baking soda test because I hadn't read Brooks's email yet and just by luck, it barely foamed at all, so I was satisfied and drank it immediately. I repeated the protocol (after reading this newer post) in the original ultrasonic cleaner but sure enough, although the mixture looked encouragingly milky, it began to separate within a minute and by about 10 minutes has a thick dark yellow layer on the bottom. So, I don't know why this first U S cleaner does less well, but it does. So, I'll use the replacement cleaner and make the excellent encapsulated Vitamin C. I don't understand how these machines actually work or why this would happen. -Gail
Re: CSIMPORTANT COMMENT; Liposomal Encapsulation
What is the make/model of the cleaner you used that worked? Thanks!

Re: CSIMPORTANT COMMENT; Liposomal Encapsulation
Gail, Do you have the smaller UC or the larger? Also, how much did you fill up the tank, in reference to the max and min lines?

RE: CSIMPORTANT COMMENT; Liposomal Encapsulation
Brooks, I appreciate very much your information and plan on trying the encapsulation myself as soon as I get equipment. I have bought the other vit C and am happy with results from it. If you had not posted most of us wouldn't know of the encapsulated Lip. Vit C. Thank you for thinking of us. I have a cousin with cancer that I have forwarded ordering information to. I know he would not try to make it himself.
