The point to bear in mind about the FDA rule is that it only regulates the label, i.e. the claims made about cs. Anyone is free to sell cs so long as no curative claims are made. If I were selling it, I would simply label it "Colloidal Silver made with steam-distilled water and .999 fine silver using 27 volts DC. For research purposes only." The FDA's whole argument is that most brands of cs on the market are "misbranded," meaning they are being sold for internal consumption to treat disease.
