That, Bob ,depends on what you have in mind when talking about the
"dynamics of cerebral-spinal fluid circulation ". What I have in mind now is
the
the viral encephalitis caused by the Nipah virus which ravaged my country a few
months ago. You have not seen a victim of encephalitis , have you? The wreckage
caused by these critters is inhuman . That is the reason I joined the Silver
list beause I think that colloidal silver is a good match for these critters and
hope to
glean some technological tit-bits first hand from those who are really involved.
Perhaps, I oversimplified my choice of words because I did not want to appear
augumentative and sound technological because I know very little of these lab
procedures . I merely asked for some help to clear my mind on how best the
silver
ion can act osmotically in general
1. By Endosmosis: Through osmosis how the silver ion pass
into a vessel or a cell
2. By Exomosis : Through osmosis how the silver ion
pass
within outward.
. Knowing a little about the nature of its osmotic pressure and
the filtration mechanism of the choroid plexeses, perhaps it might throw some
light on the " gateless " nature of the silver ion and the " gate " nature of
the chemically or biologically chelated silver ion. Any mineral if not chelated
i.e.enclosed by amino-acids, will not be absorbed by a cell. A mineral ion is
about
3 to 8 % bioavailable to the cell and the chelated mineral is about 40%. Mineral
ions can form weak or unstable chelates with gluconates,ascorbates,lactates or
citrates. In the body all minerals are protein chelates with exception of
skeletal minerals calcium and phosporus.. The studies of the colloidal pressure
of these
chelated minerals and their presence in the cerebral-spinal fluid circulation
might give us a glimpse as to their availability to the brain cells. Cells can
only assimilate mineral ions in the aminoacid-coated form.
Besides serving as a watery cushion for the brain and
spine,
it also
balances the shrinking and expanding of the cranial contents by increasing or
decreasing the a mount of the cerebrospinal fluid. Cellular nourishment and
removal of waste are effected by its effective ciculation. Any infection of the
cerebrospinal tract or blockage can affect the its circulation . In
encephalitis, I would like to conjuncture how the colloidal silver is going to
act when the dynamics of the cerebra-spinal flluid circulation is altered. The
standard medical text describes that the cerebrospinal fluid is confined to the
brain and the spinal cord. But the Russians have researched using radio-active
dye that the circulation of the cerebro-spinal fluid extends peripherally to the
extremities enclosed in its extenuated subarachnoid space..This was reported
some time ago.If that is the case,I can think of many possibilities using
colloidal silver besides the oral route. .

I am here with you all to learn and to share. I work to earn
it.
Maybe I am merely trying to be as good as you are but not better. There are many
things under the sun to talk about, why use fancy words. It is not education you
are talking about, you are talking about yourself. .

Hi Lew,
Lets see now,first you start with the blood-brain barrier and call it
gate-less, then you get on osmotic and oncotic pressure and finally hit
on cerebral-spinal fluid circulation. Now I`m not sure what you are
talking about and am beginning to think you don`t either.
Please clarify what you are thinking for me.
The blood-brain barrier is a "gate", it allows somethings in and not
others. Also keeps somethings out also. Works in both directions.
Osmotic pressure has to do with molar concentrations on the sides of a
membrane.
Oncotic pressure is a part of the osmotic pressure caused by the plasma
proteins.
Cerebralspinal (its one word) fluid enters the CNS (central nervous
system) from the choroid plexuses, circulates through the brain and down
the spine, finally being reabsorbed into the blood. Its purpose is to
act as a shock absorber in protecting the brain and spine from
mechanical damage.
I don`t think that ionized silver has anything to do with the "dynamics
of cerebralspinal fluid circulation". Perhaps we should talk about
desmosomes, tight junctions, gap junctions, and other ways that
materials pass in and out of cells, including brain cells.
This is not to insult you, but to let you know that using a lot of
fancy words and mixing them up won`t snow us. Its obvious that you are a
very educated person, so threat us the same way.
Bless you Bob Lee
