Symptoms of systemic copper poisoning may include: capillary damage, headache, cold sweat, weak pulse, and kidney and liver damage, central nervous system excitation followed by depression, jaundice, convulsions, paralysis, and coma. Death may occur from shock or renal failure. Chronic copper poisoning is typified by hepatic cirrhosis, brain damage and demyelination, kidney defects, and copper deposition in the cornea as exemplified by humans with Wilson's disease. It has also been reported that copperpoisoning has lead to hemolytic anemia and accelerates arteriosclerosis., Gastrointestinal disturbance, Lowered blood pressure, Depending on the intensity and duration of exposure, effects may vary from mild irritation to severe destruction of tissue., To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated.
