Toxic effect: carbon disulfide - what does this mean
Carbon disulfide is a toxic substance that can cause severe damage to the body when inhaled or ingested. it can cause inflammation and damage to the respiratory system, central nervous system, and liver, as well as other organs. it can also cause skin irritation, eye irritation, and dizziness. long-term exposure can lead to serious health problems such as cancer, reproductive problems, and neurological damage.
What happens during the disease - toxic effect: carbon disulfide
The toxic effects of carbon disulfide are caused by its ability to interfere with the normal functioning of the nervous system. it binds to the sulfhydryl groups of enzymes and proteins, disrupting their normal functioning. this can lead to an increase in the production of free radicals, which can damage the cells of the nervous system and other organs. this can lead to neurological and psychological symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, fatigue, irritability, confusion, and memory loss. it can also lead to other serious health problems such as liver and kidney damage, reproductive problems, and an increased risk of certain types of cancer.
