Some of the Italian researchers deliberately started the test with helium in the cell at atmospheric concentration, so the new helium increased the level above background. Mel Miles did not enrich or concentrate the helium. He let all of the effluent gas pass through the collection flask for 2 days (48 hours) at normal pressure. During that time a volume of gas about 40 times the volume of the flask flowed through the flask. This flushed out other gasses from the flask. In other words, the final flask-full of gas was a sample from ~1.2 hours of electrolysis at the natural concentration of helium in electrolysis gas.
