A meter will not detect particles.
An electron microscope requires a dry sample, and drying ionic silver solutions results in silver oxide particles.
How it's dried determines the dispersion pattern.
It takes a picture of something that was never in the water, much larger than what actually was in the water.

The malvern particle sizer [Frank Key as one] will both give size ranges and density readings. It uses a calibrated laser.

Eyeballs have limited resolution but aren't calibrated, so brightness of the TE tells a story about total reflective surface, while an inability to determine single particles as they are too small for the eyes resolution limits to determine, gives a fuzzy velvety appearance to the laser beam.

Both LVDC and HVAC make the same substance...IONS
Particles are formed out of ions, later, with many variable environmental factors involved.
Water is one of the biggest variables.

Neville, Eskimo,

MesoSilver prints the ppm and the particle size in nms on their label. I'm assuming its the average size of particles (.65 nm) and they state the ratio is 80% particles w/ 20% ions (don't ask me at what size they draw the distinction). I believe different size bottles can be purchased for 10, 15 or 20 ppm.

I've used them over the last 5 years and notice the color does start at yellow and continues on to darker colors as the months go by. It's nice to know today there are ways to determine, to some degree, what the particle density (ppm) is via conductivity measures- to begin with and as a finished product of colloidal silver. And the more challenging determination of particle size via electron microscope for the 1%ers and the laser option for the rest of us.

No worries Craig.

The definition of quality relies on the individuals interpretation thereof. What would be the characteristics of a product which would be the defining factor of quality to the individual? That's up to the individual to decide, and most certainly will be debatable among several individuals.

A question was asked, and I responded with my answer, others can respond with theirs.

Every marketer purports to have an edge, with home produced EIS/CS everyone has pretty much the same product, they know exactly what that product is and how it was produced, and can choose to use either a high Ag+ ion solution or a more neutral particulate solution, can't get that with purchased products, it is what it is as it sits on the shelf. Besides, what information is printed on the label of the purchased product, apart from the ppm count?

Don't forget, each to his/her own when it comes to this stuff <g>.

Hi Neville,

With all due respect, regarding the "quality" of Mesosilver...have you ever seen or used Mesosilver it?

Kind regards,

Craig

No way in the world for me, not as long as my bum points to the ground!
No amount of money would encourage me to purchase *any* marketed product when I can make equal or better quality stuff myself, especially when I'm ingesting a quantity of EIS/CS every day, but even if I wasn't, I would still rather make my own than buy it, at least I know what I've got, and I know it was produced using LVDC.

They all go on about how their product is produced by some mystical secret squirrel method which results in the best 'this or that?'. Like everything else, the best marketer will get the biggest share, doesn't mean it's a quality product though, just better sales pitch.
Disclaimer and conclusion: Each to his/her own.
