Brooks, I appreciate very much your information and plan on trying the encapsulation myself as soon as I get equipment. I have bought the other vit C and am happy with results from it. If you had not posted most of us wouldn't know of the encapsulated Lip. Vit C. Thank you for thinking of us. I have a cousin with cancer that I have forwarded ordering information to. I know he would not try to make it himself.

NOTE: The methodology outlined IS NOT RELIABLE as a true indication of achieved encapsulation levels of vitamin C. The ONLY truly reliable means of, accurately, knowing the degree of encapsulation is via Electron Microscopic observation. This entails preparation protocols/equipment beyond means of most persons----even most laboratories. In my enthusiasm to avail list members of a "SIMPLE" protocol, which had yielded results reliable enough to validate useful parameters....I outlined a test which is NOT TRULY INDICATIVE of the encapsulated Vitamin C content. For those of you who followed my instructions for making a general determination of the approximate, percentage levels of encapsulation, the discrepancy in results....you may have achieved, ARE NOT YOUR FAULT and did not result from a "broken protocol" on your part. Partial Explanation: There are just too many variables involved (volumes/strengths/ratios) of the reactive materials, especially bicarbonate and ascorbic acid fractions presenting. Just varying the velocity of mixing can result in "marked" differences of the gas-release reaction. The gas generation is NOT a true reflection of the percentage of non-encapsulated Vitamin C fraction. While my intentions were of the highest order, my information was incomplete and poorly constructed. For this, I deeply apologize. Although some may be able to replicate my results, the protocol proper, is too unreliable for general application. However, all is not lost. There is a VISIBLE, indicator of the general success of the experimenter's procedure. We HAVE determined, via electron microscope examination by an associated laboratory....that almost any solution achieved using the simple procedures outlined in my original post for producing encapsulation.....yields >50% encapsulation. One excellent indicator is the degree of "apparent >homogenization". That is, the uniform, milky, appearance......and its "long-term" (days) retention. I have no defensible excuse for my error....therefore, must appeal to the graces of the list members----for understanding. Sincerely, Brooks Bradley. P.S. I would be remiss if I failed to encourage ALL OF YOU to continue your researches addressing use of this most promising protocol for encapsulation. The majority of our investigations have yielded VERY powerful positive results. -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
