Welcome Barb! Thank you for asking. EIS stands for Electrically Isolated Silver, a term that was originated by a member of the group some time in the last few years in an attempt to distinguish what we here *mean* when we talk about "CS."
The term colloidal silver is so generic at this point that it is applied indiscriminately to almost any kind of silver preparation regardless of how it is made or its characteristics. Everything from chemical precipitates to suspensions of silver powder in protein gels are often referred to by the same name, CS. The kind of product supported by the general consensus of the members here is made by electrolysis of silver in pure water. There are no additives or anything to deliberately bind to the silver, thus the "Isolated." Made this way the true particulate fraction can be relatively minor compared to the ionic, or truly dissolved, portion, thus the de-emphasis of "colloidal." How do I say this... hmmm? For purposes of discussion here EIS is pretty much interchangeable with "CS," although with a bit more precision to its definition. Elsewhere, you might or might not find people familiar with the term at all, yet! <grin> Be well, Mike D. > Hello Lovers .....
