Here is my best guess, since I don't know anything about what you
purchased. If it was 200 ppm, then it was NOT colloidal silver. It was
either a silver compound, or a silver protein. My guess would be a
silver protein. Silver proteins have the silver bound up in a protein,
and are of larger particle size, so their effectiveness is about 1/50
that of properly made colloidal silver. That is the 200 ppm MSP is about
as effective as 4 ppm EIS. Now if you dilute that to 5 ppm, that would
be a 40 to one dilution. The effectiveness would go to near 0, and
there is nothing to prevent the protein from being attacked by bacteria
and fungi any more. So my suspicion is that what you are seeing
setting out is probably either bacteria, fungi, or spores from them.

Lois,
Welcome to the group!
If you have particles that are settling out, then you're definitely
dealing with something that's not what we've come to consider "best."
It's not going to do you any serious harm to use what you have, but I'd
be very concerned about that 200ppm stuff long-term.
As for the product of your generator: I'm not familiar with Abe's
generator setup, but it sounds like he uses series resistors to limit
the current, right? How long does a batch take to make, and what size
batch is it?
Are there fuzzy deposits on one or both electrodes when you're
finished, and do you mix these in? If so, that could be the source of
your settling. General good practice is to remove the electrodes from
the water carefully to avoid dislodging any such deposits and letting
any that do get shaken loose settle.
So, short answer, let it settle out and decant the rest, which should
be predominatly ionic and *small* particle, and safer to use long term.
Any other thoughts, folks? Abe, wanna give us some details of your
generator design so we can comment intelligently about it? <grin>
Thanks,
Mike D.
I bought some 200ppm from the dynamite co. They call theirs "solace". I
mixed 1-half tsp. in distilled h2o to come up with 5ppm. I did about a
quart. It was about 2- 3 weeks ago. {kept in a dark brown bottle in a
cool room in the dark } Just got a bottle out and find that the laser
line is weak---if I turn the bottle a few times the line is dark red.
My question is---Is this safe to use internally or are the silver
particles too large?? { they fell to the bottom.} I have only been
learning about silver and it's uses for a short time & have so very much
to learn.
I also got a generator set up from abeland&altasnove.com which
uses 4
9V batteries, a meter with a 33K resistor & two 4 9's 4 inch silver
wires. We
made 1 batch, last week. I have noticed that the same thing is
happening , a
light line and then dark when it is mixed..} What did I do wrong,???
Thanks for any help you can give===Lois
