Benefits of technology

The present invention is about using silver in water to kill harmful microorganisms. The invention involves using silver particles that are suspended in water and have an interior of elemental silver and an exterior of ionic silver oxide. The silver particles are placed in colloidal suspension in the water at a concentration of 5-40 ppm total silver. The invention is effective in killing or disabling microorganisms that are harmful to human beings. The invention also involves using a modification of a device and process described in a previous patent. The modified device uses a seven-gallon water chamber and operates at ten thousand volts alternating current. The silver concentration can be adjusted from 10 ppm to 40 ppm. The invention also involves the use of hydrogen peroxide in combination with the silver composition. The use of a hydrogel containing the silver colloid improves its efficacy for wound care.

Problems solved by technology

This is necessary because the high purity water is insufficiently conductive for the process to occur properly.
It has been found that voltages significantly lower than this produce a composition with larger particles not having the optimal properties described herein.

Effect test

example 1

[0350]For a 1 Kg batch of gel take components of Part A and Part B as given below:

Part AInventive silver colloid 32 ppm860 gDistilled Water100 gCarbopol 6.8 gTriethanolamine 4.0 gPart BInventive silver colloid 32 ppm 50 gPropylene Glycol 70 gTriethanolamine 6.0 g

[0351]First take required amount of distilled water and silver solution in a stirrer and start stirring. Slowly add in Carbopol (Noveon, USA). Stirring should be sufficiently vigorous to dispense the Carbopol and avoid formation of lumps. Temperature should be maintained between 60-70° C. during stirring.

[0352]Mix all ingredients of Part B in a beaker. Heat to 70° C. and add to Part A under vigorous stirring. Continue mixing and cool to room temperature. Check yield of batch. It should be approx. 1000 gm. The triethanolamine causes the Carbopol to gel.

example 2

[0353]Prepare all ingredients as in Example 1 including the addition of 1% collagen. This will give a gel with both antimicrobial as well as benefits of collagen which has scaffolding type of wound healing acceleration.

example 3

[0354]Prepare all ingredients as in Example 1 but including the addition of Aloe vera (powder or solution) in the range of 1-5%. This will confer additional wound healing properties.

Abstract

We disclose a colorless composition comprising silver particles and water, wherein said particles comprise an interior of elemental silver and an exterior of ionic silver oxide, wherein the silver particles are present in the water at a level of about 5-40 ppm, and wherein the composition manifests significant antimicrobial properties. Methods of use of the composition are described.
