Particle size doesn't bother me because I acquired this generator for the purpose of making CS with which to saturate our water purifiers...... But please bear in mind my original argument, that economics are such that what you see in the flask is the appropriate alternative for the poor. If those in the know insist that the fine particle CS is the only material that is suitable, they are doing the poor a profound disservice."
Fair enough, Reid - as they say; horses for courses. I'm not convinced by your argument re "If Biopur and Microdyn were silver nitrate the silver wouldn't lodge in the purifier matrix. It would get washed out the very first time water was put through the purifier. The fact that numerous lab tests have proven that the the purifier is 100% effective at killing pathogens is proof that silver is in there." Some time ago there was discussion on your firing process, and I recall Roger Altman or someone else stating that silver nitrate decomposes, in a reducing atmosphere, to a pure silver residue over about 250 degrees C. From memory, you soak the clay/fibre grog with "CS", then fire before using it. Thus the "CS" could indeed be silver nitrate or true colloidal silver - the end product would be a silver deposit either way. However this all is probably academic. I don't speak Spanish, but your observation of the Biopur labelling: "Nina, Your concern is quite justifiable. I have taken a magnifying glass to one of the little bottles of the Biopur, and this is what it has to say: FORMULA: Agua destilada, proteina y plata coloidal estable al 0,15%" I'll bet that means protein stabilized colloid, 15%, in distilled water. What's the bet Microdyn is not also protein stabilized? regards, Kevin Nolan [email protected] -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
