Hang on a second here.... are you saying that simple exposure like water splashing on your hand/arm from a QT with cupramine, is going to give you cancer? This seems rather stretched...
It won't give u cancer ...
Cancer cells spread/grow very rapidly, which means they need oxygen, which in turn means they will try to generate more blood vessels within and around themselves. Now exposure to excessive copper can aid them with their "berating task". same idea is used in photodynamic therapy, where profeline is injected and it concentrates in most rapid growing parts of body, ie. Nails, hair, Cancer .... And then by focusing light we kill the cancer cell ...
