Colloidal Silver Production / Re: Trouble with making 100 ppm cinnamon reduced colloidal silver. 2 questions.

Thank you for the guidelines. I have been carrying out tests for a year, doing university research, as I am a chemical engineering student, I have no intention of selling colloidal silver but rather creating scientific articles.Seems to me that a university chemical engineering student would be able to figure out simple dilutions, and also have access to better measuring devices than a medicine dropper and graduated cylinder.
The video that contains the amber bottle is the finished colloidal silver itself, it is not the reducing agent (it is stored in the refrigerator and I remove it when I use it),YOU implied that the amber bottle contained the reducing agent.
In my country Brazil there is no Karo, so I use corn glucose. (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GkjWB4ohvVrzsnJo9Fq4pVdp0-iDBkuk/view?usp=drive_link
I am just assuming that creates mold in my colloidal silver, because after two weeks this substance starts to appear..In engineering, its best not to assume.
... I specified the link for each step. Please, try viewing again, as the file I follow is also there.No, your 'instruction file' is not accessible.
Oh, another thing. Cinnamon is a fast reducer. You can run the process cold. Limiting heat results in less turbidity for me usually.
Also, as an example, for 1 litre of 200 PPM Colloidal Silver I use about 120 drops of cinnamon tincture.
My tincture is made using 3g cinnamon in 100ml 70% grain alcohol, then left to extract for a month.
To gauge your tincture, I would make a small batch of 20 PPM without a reducer, then add the tincture per-drop while stirring it cold. Find the point where it does not change color any further, add a safety margin, and there's your estimate.
Come on, about the dropper it was measured using a laboratory beaker. And I'm attaching the video (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1p_Or91sz3xrHPb0tVOmuXgaj1F2Uczlv/view?usp=drive_link) I made starting from the first meniscus, since I'm so obsessed with not knowing how to read the test tube.That is a very inaccurate way of calibrating a dropper. Why don't you try measuring 100 drops to check if you get 10ml. Better still, weigh 10 drops and see if you get 1 gram.
Regarding dilution, I make 1L of 40ppm, when diluted in 4L of water, the total sum of initial 1L (of silver) + 4L of pure water = 5L. This is wrong? So do I only have to add 3L of water?Do the math as I showed you. You add 3 liters not 4.
And regardless of whether I'm making a mistake with the dilution, even making 1L of silver with 10ppm, the gunk also grows!Your glucose is contaminated... you can see that in your video. And why do you think it is mold?

I don't understand the difficulty of helping by saying the correct amount, if I'm wrong, why not help by mentioning the correct amount?The correct amount of sodium carbonate solution is 1.0 ml per liter of water. Not 10 to 20 drops. This has been stated over and over on this forum.
1ml was exactly 10 drops. So I don't know exactly what else I'm doing wrong!I have never seen a dropper that drops .1ml per drop. You do not use varying amounts of electrolyte to set the cell current. You use a currrent limiter to set current, and cathode depth to set voltage. So I have to assume that you did not use the correct amount. Otherwise, the pH will not be correct, and the reducing agent may not all be activated. If you are not using the correct procedures, we cannot help you.
Using the C1xV1=C2V2 dilution calculationif a liter of 40ppm Colloidal Silver contains 40 mg of silver. Adding water to make 5 liters total means you have 8mg silver per liter which is 8 ppm. You should add water to make 4 liters which contain 10mg per liter which is 10 ppm. You do not add 4 liters.
40x1=10xV2 - V2=4L so I get 10ppm colloidal silver in 5L in total.
I used Karo with distilled water in equal parts for the reducer, and I have also used grape sugar, as I thought that any polysaccharide could be a good reducing agent. And they both grow this red goo.Ordinary table sugar is a polysaccharide (50% glucose, 50% fructose) and it definitely does not work. Cellulose is a polysaccharide and does not work. I don't know who told you that, but they are feeding you BS.
I filtered it just to see if it would grow back after filtering, and yes the gunk comes back.
