Hi Stuff,
First of all, you really don't need to send your cs to a lab unless
you are producing it commercially.
If you are young and healthy, it really doesn't matter how good or
bad the cs is. Many people have obtained great benefit with a 3
nines generator despite huge variations in quality of the dw,
electrode length and placement, variability in brew times, battery
voltage, and so on. It works fine to kill bacteria, help heal minor
cuts, and even some of the weaker viruses.
The salt test is ideal in these circumstances to show you indeed
have cs, and to give an idea how strong it is.
I posted a brief table a while ago that gives a rough guide. This is
in 10 ppm increments, but you can easily interpolate between the
readings and judge the concentration within 5 ppm:

Since then, I discovered Bob Lee's Faraday calculations, and found
how useful Mercury is to calculate the amount of silver liberated.
I also realized it would be possible to measure the time it takes
for the dispersion to appear, which would give more objective
information on the amount of silver present. I have not had time to
run through the process in small increments, but it would vastly
increase the usefulness of the test.
It is really not necessary to send you cs to a lab, especially if
you are young and healthy. It won't tell you much about variations
in your process, where the salt test can be used daily at very
little cost.
If you do decide to get an analysis, make sure you use a lab that
has demonstrated competence in this field.
One good way to verify is to check the correlation between uS and
ppm. As Trem, Frank, Ivan, and Ken agree, there should be a close
correlation between these two parameters.
Right now, Frank's analysis looks to be the best available. He has
published reports on various products on his web site, and they show
that he knows how to get accurate measurements.
He also has NIST traceability, which is necessary to ensure his
calibration references remain accurate.
But most people have never sent their cs to a lab. There's really no
need, especially if you are using one of the better cs generators
discussed here.

Mike Monett
