Copper salt · Ingredient identity
Copper sulfate
A copper sulfate quantity is not automatically an elemental copper quantity. Keep the salt form, hydration state when declared, and reporting basis together.
Look for: copper sulphate · copper(II) sulfate · Kupfer(II)sulfat

Where it appears
NT Labs names copper sulfate on its two Anti-Parasite pages. Kordon describes Copper-AID as chelated copper sulfate.
What cannot be inferred
A printed ingredient name does not tell you which copper species a test kit responds to. Copper sulfate, chelated copper wording and a copper-amine complex must be recorded separately.
What to capture
Copy the full active line and note whether a number is reported as copper, as salt or as a test result. Leave the hydrate unresolved if the label does not identify it.
