Re: CSMeso vs. Ionic silver?
I am speaking in general terms. Salts dissolve in water, along with many other things. Soluble in water means that the bonds holding the compound together break when water is introduced, like salts, or sugar. If you take some dirt, it will go into the water, but will probably not dissolve much, and the wet dirt will settle to the bottom. Some of the dirt might be fine enough, of a small enough particle size to be suspended in water. Some of that will be clay sized, and will also settle to the bottom after some time, a tiny percentage might be finer still, and will not settle out- it will stay suspended in water, and this would be the colloid fraction. A colloid is a size of particle. All this will occur in water, tap water, that normally has other stuff dissolved in the water as well. Now with getting silver to be ionically in solution requires that the water be very pure and have nothing else in it, or else the silver will react with whatever is there, and then you would have silver compounds. So it is not really soluble in water, it is an artificial solution made with specific parameters. There are silver salts, like silver nitrate, which will dissolve in water, but that is not what we are after. That is caustic and poisonous. Silver by itself is pretty safe and non-toxic. Silver in compound form is not either, most of the time. It has become something entirely different, and has new properties specific to whichever compound has been made.

Ionic silver is soluble in water, fairly slightly, like 20 ppm or more or less, depending. It's not a compound that dissolves ionically like salt. But that brings up the other side of the thing; some substances dissolve in water non-ionically; would the addition of sugar or ether, or ??? result in precipitation of the ionic silver out of solution or perhaps as hydroxide, or some strange organic silver salt??

Re: CSMeso vs. Ionic silver?
Hi Kathryn, Are you referring to the process as it (ionic silver solution) is made electrically, or in general? Ionic silver is soluble in water, fairly slightly, like 20 ppm or more or less, depending. It's not a compound that dissolves ionically like salt. But that brings up the other side of the thing; some substances dissolve in water non-ionically; would the addition of sugar or ether, or ??? result in precipitation of the ionic silver out of solution or perhaps as hydroxide, or some strange organic silver salt?? Does a form of silver exist as ionic other than as it is formed in water?

If there was anything else in the water, it would combine with it. So, ionic silver is not really water soluble either, not in the way salt is water soluble. Ah the beauties of definitions.

He has been helped with Mesosilver and states the reason ionic is not as good. I thought consensus was that it was the ionic part that is most beneficial. Here's whaat the article staed: Ionic silver is not the same as metallic silver nanoparticles . For example, metallic silver is not water soluble (does not dissolve in water) but ionic silver is water soluble (it does dissolve in water). -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
