Frequently Asked Questions for the Colloidal Silver ppm Calculator
Updated September 6, 2001

I make no claims of any kind regarding the safety, uses or effectiveness of colloidal silver (CS). I have simply used basic principles of chemistry to calculate how much silver would be deposited into distilled water (DW) when a given amount of electric current is passed through pure silver electrodes. Then I calculate the parts per million (ppm) as a ratio of the mass of silver deposited to the mass of the DW into which it has been deposited. This is elementary high-school science. You may look up the equations yourself if you like. Try looking up "Faraday's equation for electrolytic deposition" or "Faraday's Constant".
