Perhaps "Ole Bob" will answer this but in the meantime I'll chime in
with what I've learned here...
The metals will come off the positive electrode (anode) which, in this
case, is the silver one. The brass is the negative electrode so it is
not going to be releasing metal ions or particles into the water. With
this DC system we should get the good quality "colloidal silver" that we
expect.

small amounts of other metals, but usually 67 percent copper and 33
percent zinc.

CS that is safe to use.
