I agree so much it hurts me, Nenah Sylver, You did great here with this down to earth splay-ing about Colloidal Silver. Me , I would explain it like this, Most of us on this list have been around for years, Me since the list started. But I was a firm believer in all forms of colloidal Silver way before that. My Dad was a Rancher-Vetenarian , he made CS back in the 40's and used it as an antiseptic, He learned it from his dad, and we never had an infection in caster-ating or de-horning, ect.., then he started giving it to anyone with a cold, or cut, or problem, free... We made the CS with a tractor battery, a set of jumper cables and chunks of silver, at the time only worth about $1.00 a raw pound. I grew up with it and was taught how to make Colloidal Silver, also seen it again in the Navy, where Medics used CS on burns & wounds. I never gave it another thought until I had my own family, of course things went up in price in 20 years, but I started my 2 kids out on CS and we used it for every cut and cough. My kids and I are very healthy.They are 50 & 44 years old and I am 72 and still acting like a young country boy.
The Story we are addressing now, comes up every so often, don't worry about Colloidal Silver, you almost can not make it wrong, distilled water, & pure Silver + Electricity = Colloidal Silver and good health. Stand strong so they, the ones who want all the nose bleeds, cuts & so called cancers to come to them for treatment when you all can fix it your self.

Let’s analyze the abstract, which appears below: Silver is commonly used both in ionic form and in nanoparticulate form as a bactericidal agent. This is generally ascribed to a higher toxicity towards prokaryotic cells than towards mammalian cells. Comparative studies with both silver ions (such as silver acetate) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-stabilized silver nanoparticles (70 nm) showed that the toxic effect of silver occurs in a similar concentration range for Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), i.e. 0.5 to 5 ppm for silver ions and 12.5 to 50 ppm for silver nanoparticles. For a better comparison, bacteria were cultivated both in Lysogeny broth medium (LB) and in Roswell Park Memorial Institute medium (RPMI)/10% fetal calf serum (FCS) medium, as the state of silver ions and silver nanoparticles may be different due to the presence of salts, and biomolecules like proteins. The effective toxic concentration of silver towards bacteria and human cells is almost the same. First, the authors call silver ACETATE “ionic.” This is BS. Second, the authors equate nanoparticles of silver with ionic silver. This is also BS. Nano-ANYTHING significantly alters the properties of the substance, often causing it to behave in unpredictable and harmful ways. Either the authors are sloppy scientists, or they are deliberately trying to give Electrically Isolated Silver a bad name.
