ZETA POTENTIAL: Ours is the highest for long-term potency and quality. Z.P. is the negative electrical charge on the surface of each NP and is a measure of the quality of a Colloid. Most colloidal minerals have a ZP of less than 20 millivolts whereas ours ranges up to 100 mv. This charge has to be capable of piercing the spikes and membranes of viruses and bacteria. With our gentle, constant current method, independent lab results have confirmed that we obtain 1 part per million (ppm) per hour with a range of the finest nano-particles from 8 nanometers down to mono-atomic size and a very high ZP of -60 millivolts up to -100 mv. PPM rises to a saturation ceiling of 50 ppm where no more ZP charge can be carried (similar to a battery). Values of ppm reported by some manufacturers to be higher than 50 ppm, yellow or red color, would indicate that ZP is very low and particles are very large. With a slow, gentle electrolysis method, the resulting colloidal water is clear and retains its potency for several years. Many users buy their own Biophysica generator to make colloidal silver and other colloidal minerals at home at a fraction of the cost of commercially-sold liquid of dubious quality.
Zeta Potential is an electrical charge, well described in Wikipedia, is the measure of excellence of a colloid. The molecular-sized particles in a colloidal suspension carry an alkaline negative electrical charge (ZP) which is the most important particle characteristic because it determines many of the properties of the suspension. It is balanced by an opposite sign in the surrounding solution. If the repulsion between approaching particles is large enough they will bounce away from one another and that will keep the particles in a state of suspension, up to the saturation maximum of 50 ppm. If the Zeta Potential is too low (less than 20 millivolts), repulsive forces will not be strong enough, the particles will come together and may stick in a permanent diatom, then other particles may come along and also be caught in the growing aggregate. The suspension is then unstable and the aggregates will quickly settle out from the surrounding medium. The Zeta Potential charges on the particle surface are normally attached to it very firmly as part of a structured hexagonal or triangular crystalline matrix and will remain there indefinitely, even when diluted in the body of humans or animals unless disturbed by mixing with unstructured water. The higher the value of the zeta potential, the more stable the system will be. That means it will be better able to withstand additions of salt and other liquids (which might otherwise destabilize it).
