Producing Quality Colloidal Silver
Creating Colloidal Silver is not a complex activity. Nearly all of the equipment is electronic and the colloidal silver is formed through the process known as electrolysis. The colloidal dispersion of silver and water is described as an electro - colloidal hydrosol. Very pure silver rods, acting as electrodes, are immersed into de-mineralized or distilled water and a low voltage DC current is applied to the silver rods. The silver atoms the sit on the edge of the positive silver electrode (anode) will detach from the anode as a positively charged (+) nano-sized ions which ultimately gather to produce small clusters or very fine silver metal and soluble ionic silver.
During the breakdown of the positive silver electrode or the sintering off phase, a single silver atom can drop an outer electron and it must quickly find a substitute electron from another element. This is known as the ionic silver stage. Ionic silver is an unstable substance, it urgently seeks "free" electrons to rejoin itself to in order to return to a complete silver atom once more. The ionic silver will however, happily bind to any appropriate "free" electron from another element, thus creating a silver based chemical. When it cant locate an electron it will stay as the far more toxic monovalent ionic (Ag+) silver ion which can develop into a major contaminant in some preparations.
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE A GOOD QUALITY COLLOIDAL SILVER?
Many colloidal silver water producers have a propensity to confuse the truth in their journalism and advertising by mistakenly claiming only the total percentage of silver in their products is the indication of their potency. This total silver substance is articulated as 'parts per million" or ppm. It would be more exact and pertinent to specify the actual percentage of 'metallic silver' and 'ionic silver' within their colloidal silver preparation. There is a great number of differences between silver particles and ionic silver. One is deadly to pathogens in the body, whilst the second, being a toxic silver chemical interacts with the body.
Metallic silver particles are pure silver atoms that can mass collectively to form nano-sized particles of pure silver that is insoluble (does not dissolve or react in water). The chemical symbol AgO is the utilized to confirm uncontaminated metallic silver.
