According to the doctor's website, mercury sulfate can be used as the electrolyte of batteries, and can also be used to prepare other mercury compounds. Ingestion of water contaminated by mercury sulfate, inhalation of high concentration mercury sulfate gas or skin contact with a large amount of mercury sulfate can cause acute poisoning, causing headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, irritating cough, dyspnea and other symptoms. In severe cases, it will cause respiratory failure and renal function damage, and if it is not treated in time, it will lead to death.
Long-term exposure to low-concentration mercury sulfate leads to chronic poisoning, which makes patients suffer from neurasthenia, sleep disorder, dizziness, tinnitus, muscle tremor, stomatitis and other symptoms. Long-term inhalation of low-concentration mercury sulfate gas will cause interstitial pneumonia or lung consolidation, which will seriously affect health.
