respiratory tract irritation, mixed
pneumoconiosis, chills, metal fume fever,
shortness of breath, chest-pain, weakness, fatigue,
cough, muscle and joint pain
Ingestion Health hazard is normally not expected to occur.
However, in case of accidental ingestion of
crystallized Copper Salts or their solutions,
symptoms of poisoning, such as nausea and
vomiting will results.

Skin contact Health hazard is not expected to occur. May
cause allergic reactions in some individuals
Carcinogenic effect: Not known.
Rev. 5
Section IV: Emergency and First Aid Procedures
Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air and call doctor
