 OZONE CONCENTRATION

Medical ozone is produced in varying concentrations. The quantity of ozone in comparison with the quantity of oxygen in the gas stream is called per cent concentration. It is measured in micrograms (ug) of ozone per milliliter (ml or cc) of the mixture. A liter of oxygen weighs 1.4 grams. Therefore : 

0.5 % X 1.4 gm/l = 7 ug/ml 
1.0 % X 1.4 gm/l = 14 ug/ml 
1.5 % X 1.4 gm/l = 21 ug/ml 
2.0 % X 1.4 gm/l = 28 ug/ml 
2.5 % X 1.4 gm/l = 35 ug/ml 
3.0 % X 1.4 gm/l = 42 ug/ml 
3.5 % X 1.4 gm/l = 49 ug/ml 
4.0 % X 1.4 gm/l = 56 ug/ml 
4.5 % X 1.4 gm/l = 63 ug/ml 
5.0 % X 1.4 gm/l = 70 ug/ml 

5 % or 70 ug/ml is considered to be the upper limit of concentration for internal use of medical ozone. 

Dr. Greenberg, formerly of the Kief Clinic, has shown, in vitro, that at concentrations of 90 ug/ml there was crimping of red blood cells which was definitely harmful. Experiments by F. Sweet et al, have shown inhibition of growth in healthy cells at concentrations above 70 ug/ml. If we stay below that level, we will have no problems. Generators that produce higher concentrations can be dangerous for home use. Interestingly, cold plasma generators have a built in limitation of about 70 ug/ml, which is within the safe range. We are proud of the fact that no one has ever been harmed using our generators. 

Medical ozone therapy has been found to be an extremely safe modality, free from the dangerous side effects associated with drugs. In a 1980 study done by the German Medical Society for Ozone Therapy, 644 therapists were polled regarding their 384,775 patients, with a total of 5,579,238 ozone treatments administered. There were only 40 cases of side effects noted out of this number, which represents the incredibly low rate of .000007 %, and only four fatalities. Ozone has thus proven to be the safest medical therapy ever devised. 

Prof. B. Halliwell of the University of London has stated, after researching the topic, that there has never been a case cited in the medical literature of damage caused in vivo by the O1 oxygen radical. 

THE IMPORTANCE OF CT VALUE 

Flow Rate	Concentration	Time	Total Volume	Total Ozone	C x T Value
l/m	ug/ml	min	ml	ug
1/32	30	32	1000	30,000	960
1/16	30	16	1000	30,000	480
1/8	30	8	1000	30,000	240
1/4	30	4	1000	30,000	120
1/2	30	2	1000	30,000	60

CONCENTRATION X TIME = CT VALUE 

Ozone has been used to clean water for the people in big cities for over 100 years. The water engineers have a value that they use to measure the effectiveness of ozone in cleaning water. This is the CT value. It is a product of concentration x time (C x T). This information has been overlooked by the medical fraternity. The time that ozone is in contact with human tissue is of great importance. Ozone therapy has only considered concentration and total volume of ozone, and has ignored the time factor. 

When doing rectal insufflation, if the concentration is 45 ug/ml, and the length of time of exposure is 2 minutes, the CT value will be 45 x 2 = 90. If however, the exposure time is 16 minutes, the CT will be 45 x 16 = 720. A higher CT value is a more desirable figure, because more oxidation work can be done. In order to be able to lengthen the time of exposure, it is necessary to have a very low flow rate. The ozone industry has generally rated its equipment with a flow rate of 1/2 liter/minute. However, by using a regulator producing a flow rate of 1/32 liter/minute, it is possible to get exposure times of 30 minutes. Since ozone concentration in general is inversely proportional to flow rate, the lowest flow produces the highest concentration. For example, at 1/32 liter/minute, our Beta generator produces 50 ug/ml. Rectal insufflation for 30 minutes will produce a CT value of 50 x 30 = 1500. There is a clear advantage to low flow rate insufflation, and it also reduces the problem of cramping. 

There is also the added benefit of very low oxygen usage. Remember that oxygen by itself does not produce the therapeutic effects of ozone. The patient often needs to have a series of colonics before beginning insufflation, and an enema before each insufflation. The person taking rectal insufflation should also take quality acidophilus, or yogurt. 


For prevention, a major benefit can be derived from regularly drinking ozona- ted water. Water is a fascinating substance, and we all take it for granted. Chemically it is considered to be on oxygen atom bound with two hydrogen atoms. The bond angle between the two hydrogen atoms is known to be variable, depending on the amount of energy in the molecule. Radionics research has shown that water whose bond angle is 101 degrees is 'dead' water, bereft of life-giving energy. 

When water is distilled, the bond angle expands to 120 degrees upon evaporation, but collapses to 101 degrees upon condensation, and is therefore 'dead'. A bond angle of 103 degrees corresponds to average water. A bond angle of 106 degrees produces activated, energized water, and is attainable by placing a magnet, north pole inward, against the water container. The highest energy obtainable in liquid water is a bond angle of 109.5 degrees, and this is attainable only by ozonating water at 4 degrees C. Ozone will not stay in water for very long, even at 4 degrees, so it is best to freshly ozonate water and drink it immediately on an empty stomach, rather than make a large amount and try to store it. It can be stored for longer times by freezing it in plastic containers.
