I was wondering if Silver Nitrate is damaging to ones health after repeated
exposure to the skin? I have yet to wear gloves when doing wetplate work
and always have black hands. Can the silver enter the bloodstream through
your skin. I would like to know if anyone on the list has knowledge of this.
