If you look at a chemical analysis of food grade H202, which I did (nope don't remember the site) it has a LOT of stuff in it. Maybe different stuff, but apparently it is so caustic (?is that the right word?) that it is impossible to make it "pure" as it ends up with contaminated with stuff from every pipe and container it is kept in, or has passed through. After reading the analyses/comparisons between grocery store 3% H202 with its stabilizers, and the "food grade" H202 with its dissolved contaminants, and given the handling risk with the 35% H202, as well as the much higher cost, I decided to stick with grocery store 3%. Anyone who is the least bit klutzy or accident prone, as I am, probably should not mess with the 35% stuff. And with all my pets, I don't want it around. Further, since the amount of peroxide I sometimes add to my CS is so miniscule, I don't see the stabilizers as a problem for that reason also. This is, of course, just my opinion, and a statement of what I do. Many folks here disagree and think the 35% is the thing to use. Depends on whether you think the contaminants are worse than the stabilizers. Of course grocery store H202 may have both. I still won't buy or use the 35% "food grade" stuff. sol

Or for that matter, hydrogen peroxide with stabling agents to colloidal silver. (not the food grade stuff)
