Comparison of production processes: electrolysis, proton resonance process and high-voltage plasma process
Colloidal metals and ionic solutions are produced using various manufacturing processes. Each method has its specific advantages and disadvantages, possible applications in the hobby sector and potential risks.
One crucial difference has now been independently tested: How reliable are manufacturers’ ppm claims?

Explanation of the results: Only one process delivers on its promises
The significant deviations in the stated ppm (parts per million) make it easy to recognise that neither electrolysis nor the mysterious proton resonance process are suitable for the production of high-quality colloidal solutions. The quantities in the liquids usually differ by almost 100 % from the advertised values – only a tiny fraction of the metals are actually present in these ‘colloids’.
This is because electrolysis should not actually be referred to as colloidal metals, they are only ionic solutions. There is a chemical-physical difference between ionic metal solutions and colloids, which influences the quality, particle size, concentration, colouring and effect in the metabolism.
- Electrolysis produces ionic solutions (reactive) and not colloidal dispersions. Read more: Differences between electrolysis and the high-voltage plasma process
- No statements are made about the manufacturing process for the proton resonance process; there is no scientifically verifiable literature. Read more: Proton resonance – a questionable process (coming soon)
- The high-voltage plasma process produces colloidal dispersions = real colloids. There is extensive scientific literature and various studies on this. Read more: Colloidal metals in the high-voltage plasma process
The ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) analysis method is a state-of-the-art method for determining metal concentrations in colloidal solutions.
The studies were conducted by the Institute of Public Health in Ostrava, Czech Republic.
