It addresses the impacts of copper deficiency and excess, the complexity of evaluating copper status through serum levels and ceruloplasmin, and introduces potential markers like cuproenzymes and chaperones, which pose measurement difficulties. External factors affecting these indicators further complicate assessments of copper status.
