Silver introduced into the water by electrolysis has an antiseptic action which, to be really effective, requires a very long contact time and high doses which are not well tolerated by the human body. Organic substances present in the water passivate the metal and reduce its effectiveness still more.

Additive and subtractive plates. Development of presensitized plates after exposure to light depends on whether the plate is of the additive or subtractive type. Development of additive plates utilizes a developer solution that contains a lacquer and a desensitizer. As the solution dissolves the non-image area coating, the lacquer adheres to the stencil, making it ink receptive, and the desensitizer prevents the base metal in the non-printing areas from becoming sensitive to ink. Often, gum arabic is applied to form a protective barrier that prevents contamination of the non-image areas before the plate is put on press. 3, record 11, English, - additive%20plate

Silver introduced into the water by electrolysis has an antiseptic action which, to be really effective, requires a very long contact time and high doses which are not well tolerated by the human body. Organic substances present in the water passivate the metal and reduce its effectiveness still more. Silver is practically inactive in relation to bacteriophages, bacilli spores, algae and fungi, which cause skin diseases. The electro-argoligenic process does not, therefore, completely protect bathers from contamination. 1, record 16, English, - passivate

L'argent introduit dans l'eau par électrolyse a une action antiseptique qui demande, pour être réellement efficace, un temps de contact très long et des doses élevées, difficilement tolérées par l'organisme. Les substances organiques présentes dans l'eau passivent le métal et en diminue [sic] encore l'efficacité. L'argent est pratiquement inactif vis-à-vis des bactériophages, des spores de bacilles, des algues et des champignons, causes des maladies de la peau. Le procédé électroargoligène ne met donc pas les baigneurs à l'abri des contaminations. 1, record 16, French, - passiver
