Copper peptides have an affinity for skin cells, and they're studied for their ability to support collagen and elastin production, which is the foundation of healthy skin and wound healing
Thus, the half-life of superoxide, although very short at high concentrations (e.g., 0.05 seconds at 0.1mM) is actually quite long at low concentrations (e.g., 14 hours at 0.1 nM)
