Thanks Richard. I didn't ask the original question (what's the other 97% of the
3% Hydrogen Peroxide solution), but it's still good to get the details. I use
only food grade and love it.

As long as we're on the topic, I have a question for you or anyone else about
the effects of baking soda in my distilled water when I make CS. I just made my
first batch of CS using baking soda, and I'm not totally comfortable with the
results.

I don't have a meter so I'm not able to read particle size or concentration -- 
OR see what else is in the water -- but from the taste, it's clear that the
baking soda is prominent.

My questions are:

1) Is the silver still effective?

2) Are there any dangerous compounds in the fluid (or compounds that might give
one argyria)?

I'd really appreciate knowing this, as I'd love to start using the CS again.

Perhaps I used too much baking soda. Richard, Bob, Trem, Ode? Anyone?

Thanks much.
Nenah
