I wouldn't expect any direct effect to the silver particle because of the size. The wavelength of the typical microwave oven is 12 cm. Compare that to the average particle size of (insert your favorite made up value here) and it isn't surprising there is little effect noted. Until the conductor in question approaches 1/4 wavelength there is no significant interaction with the electromagetic wave. Any effect would come from the heating of the water.

Disclaimer: Of course, this is only physics so any relation to the various metaphysical or astronomical manifestations people ascribe to the use of microwave ovens is neither suggested nor implied.

If you "make" CS at over around 110-120 deg F. it's almost guaranteed to come up yellow.
 After it's made and sits around a while, it doesn't seem to care.
If you freeze it, The particulates seem to form a column in the center and may drop out when thawed [never noticed drop out... or not] I was a little surprised to see no effect from nuking CS..[I didn't boil it]

All bets are off if you microwave it, I have never done any tests to see if the microwaves cause higher aggregation then otherwise. If you have a laser, then try heating it (the CS not the laser), then compare the intensity of the beam in the unheated and the heated. If thye apprear identical, then most likely there is little or no effect.

Thanks for responding Marshall. It's perfectly clear CS, ppm level around 12. I guess that even if it's less effective, if it gets more into her that would be a good thing. Best way to do this in a microwave in a cup? Or on the stove in a porcelain tea kettle? MA
