Hi Mike:
I'm very interested in your work; please send me a link to your group when
you get the chance.
I'm actually not confused, though.
There are other variables in the production process, although perhaps some
would consider the issue "splitting hairs".
The most irritating variable is distilled water quality. While this does
not necessarily directly impact the electrolysis process, indirectly in
makes a big difference. I can only get the best results when I
double-distill water myself, which I usually don't have time to do. When I
measure distilled water that I purchase, and I see the ph is above 8.0, and
the purity level far above my ideal 0.3 uS, I know that my end product will
not be as good as it could be.
Second, the longer distilled water sits in open air, the more nitrogen it
will pull from the air; the more energy you apply to the process, the more
nitrogen is pulled into the water. With HVAC, this can make a huge
difference, but with LVDC, it only seems to be a minor difference.
Furthermore, you can get silver oxides due to the decay at the silver
electrodes. Poor electrode configurations are probably the biggest
offenders.
Also, silver particles are not converted into silver chloride. The only
thing they are subject to (relative to our topic) to is oxidation. In the
presence of acids, silver ions may be released (as was definatively
demonstrated by Dr. Bart Flick), once released they are then subject to
numerous chemical reactions.
Again, colloidal size particles, even if they in oxide form, have unique
characteristics; however, you won't find this information by cracking open
your high school chemistry book. But I do agree that any interesting
function of silver particles, as silver particles, is not very relevant to a
direct action of killing pathogens.
So we definately agree about the value of a highly ionic, highly
concentrated stabilized silver solution in distilled water. I can't wait to
see the information you present on your generator!
Kind Regards,
Jason

Hi Jason,
I can clear up some of the confusion you are experiencing.
The only product of silver electrolysis is silver ions, Ag+, and the
hydroxide ion, OH-.
There are no other products in colloidal silver.
There can be no other results from the electrolysis process. You
cannot get pure silver atoms, or silver oxide, or tetrasilver
tetroxide, or any other combination of silver compounds. Only silver
ions, Ag+, and the hydroxide, OH-.
The only combination you can get from this is silver hydroxide,
AgOH. These are the only particles you will see in colloidal silver.
This is what turns the solution yellow. There are only a few metals
that engage in plasmon resonance. Silver and gold are among them.
For silver, this absorbs the blue end of the spectrum and leaves the
typical yellow tint that everyone is familiar with.
But when you ingest this solution, the AgOH combines with the
hydrochloric acid in your stomach and produces silver chloride and
water. The equation is:
AgOH + HCl --> AgCl + H2O
This is a standard acid-base neutralization reaction. Look it up in
any high school chemistry textbook.
The result is it doesn't matter what kind of silver hydroxide
particles you ingest. The particle size, zeta potential, and any
other parameters are of no consequence. They are all reduced to
silver chloride and water.
So particle size has no meaning when you ingest cs.
But there is a different way of making cs. I have developed a new
method called the SilverCell process. This makes cs up to 44uS,
which is the world's strongest and most effective silver ion
solution possible.
Normally, any cs generator is terminated when the ions from one
electrode reach the opposite electrode. They combine in the Nernst
Diffusion Layer and form silver hydroxide, AgOH.
This terminates the brewing process, since any more electrons that
enter the solution only go to forming more silver hydroxide, or
they plate out on the cathode.
If you continue the brew, you may find the silver ion concentration
actually decreases due to extra combination of AgOH in the Nernst
Diffusion Layer. So for every electron delivered to the solution,
you now lose more than two ions, and it makes no sense to continue
the process.
But I have developed a way to control the reactions in the Nernst
Diffusion Layer. As a result, my solution has absolutely no Tyndall,
even in the darkest room. I can deliver the world's highest silver
ion concentration in a colloidal silver generator. This makes it by
far the most effective cs ever produced.
I can also show that the silver ion concentration is essential in
combating the most virulent pathogens. See for example my post on
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg76134.html
This clearly shows the higher ion concentration is essential to
combat serious pathogens.
As you point out, Argentyn 23 is at least four times more effective
than the silver you were making with your modified Silvergen SG-7.
So you also show the ion concentration is extremely important.
But I have good news. I have learned how to control the reactions in
the Nernst Diffusion Layer. I can now produce a cs that is more than
10 times as concentrated as the typical 3 nines, and more than
double the best available from any commercial vendor.
This turns out to be extremely effective in sublingual absorption.
You do not have to ingest the solution, and no longer have the
terrible stomach upset from the typical pharmaceutical antibiotics.
But an interesting side effect occurs - holding the solution in your
mouth for 12 minutes also kills the bacteria that cause dental decay
and gum disease. You will find the tartar on the back side of your
teeth will suddenly fall off, and you can feel the depression caused
by the bacteria with your tongue. They were eating your tooth away,
and you would have to pay huge dental bills to solve the problem.
But this is no longer necessary with the SilverCell process.
I can also show the maximum silver ion concentration from sublingual
absorption is less than 20 parts per billion in a typical male with
5.5 liters of blood.
This is far too low to have any direct effect on pathogens in the
body. The only conclusion is the immune system is taking the silver
ions and using them somehow to combat pathogens. In this regard, the
highest silver ion concentration is extremely important. Low silver
ion concentrations simply don't work, as you have already proved.
This means we have to incorporate the body's immune system response
in our evaluation. This means we cannot expect any results when a
pathogen has already invaded our cells, since the immune system
cannot go inside and kill the pathogen. It is only vulnerable when
it is out in the open and the white blood cells can attack.
This means we must consider the cs solution to be a preventative
measure - to stop pathogens from gaining a foothold. So we must take
a certain amount each day to keep the immune system primed and
ready.
Fortunately, the SilverCell process uses only 50mL each day, instead
of the 250mL or more that some people are reporting. So the amount
needed is about 20% of the typical usage. This is important in areas
where distilled water is hard to obtain, and the cost of the silver
electrodes may be prohibitive. Since the SilverCell process uses
much less silver, the electrodes will last much longer.
I am in the process of completing the web pages that describe how to
make your own MiniCell generator. I will post the url as soon as it
is available. It will be less expensive than the original 3 nines.
I will also present a web page that donates the SilverCell process
to the public domain, so anyone can make it without fear of attack
from patent attorneys.
If you are interested, you can join the Yahoo SilverCentral forum
for further discussions and help in making your own MiniCell
generator. I will give further information later.
Best Regards,
Mike Monett
