An Indepth History of Silver
Since ancient times silver has been highly regarded as a versatile healing
tool. In ancient Greece, Rome, Phoenicia, and Macedonia, silver was used
extensively to control infections and spoilage. Hippocrates, the “Father
of Medicine,” taught that silver healed wounds and controlled disease.
Around 400 B.C. he listed as a singular treatment for ulcers “the
flowers of silver alone, in the finest powder.” Herodotus describes
how the King of Persia carried with him boiled water in silver flagons
to prevent sickness. In 69 B.C., silver nitrate was described in the
contemporary pharmacopoeia.

Be
Careful Of Those Who Uniquely Sell ‘the Truth’ About Colloidal
Pseudoscientific misinformation does a serious disservice to those who
pursue excellence in the manufacture of colloidal silver. The diatribes
of the manufacturer of Mesosilver™ are a case in point. Using three
websites that appear to be independent of each other to perfect the myth
that it [sic] is the 'only true colloid' made, this manufacturer subverts
scientific fact to trick the unwary consumer. What is presented there
is simply the most self-serving pseudoscience that can be found anywhere.

Particulate vs. Ionic Silver – The
End of the Debate
The premise that ‘particulate’ (elemental) silver is the
only true colloid and that only it is effective as an antimicrobial was
spurious from the beginning.

Comparative Bacteriology Analysis:
Mesosilver – Advanced
Colloidal Silver (XX46A) vs. Sovereign Silver(s)
The purpose of this study was to compare and contrast the inhibition
of the above specimen (silver preparation) with Sovereign Silver (SS)
on both normal and antibiotic resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus
(“Staph”). This was accomplished by inoculating healthy Staph
cultures with such silvers on standard YT plates, then placing them in
a 37° C incubator overnight.

Comparative Bacteriology Analysis: Particulate vs. Ionic Silver
Claims have been made by the manufacturer of Mesosilver that suggest "ionic" silver
potency is compromised by Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) in the stomach, and
that only the particulate [species], elemental silver (i.e. the primary
content in Mesosilver) will survive and therefore be effective in inhibiting
microorganisms. Whether or not HCl in the stomach is an issue is well
beyond the scope of this paper. Herein we are going to deal with only
one issue: the antimicrobial effect of 'particulate' (elemental) vs.
(free) 'ionic' silver.
