   LACELEAF (ANTHURIUM SPECIES)
   (anthurium bunga)
   Anthurium or laceleaf is a native of tropical America and the Pacific Islands and a popular ornamental in the centrally heated environments of office blocks.
   It has dark green lance-shaped leaves. The flowers are a tight spike above a scarlet or other contrasting coloured shield. They are often added to cut-flower displays, because of their unusual shape.
   After ingestion, the oxalate crystals may pass unchanged through your digestive system, or they may cause burning, swelling, and choking.
   POISON LOCATION
   The greatest concentration of the toxin occurs in the leaves.
   POISON TYPE
   Calcium oxalate, a compound derived from oxalic acid, as well as enzymes that trigger the release of histamine in the bloodstream of persons who ingest the leaves. Oxalates are needle-like crystals, which, when eaten, may pierce the mouth, throat, and digestive tract as they pass through, causing, at the very least, intense discomfort.
   TYPICAL POISONING SCENARIO
   The main problem lies with infants, toddlers, or pets who, once attracted to the showy flowers and foliage, may nibble on the leaves. If arums are kept out of curious mouths, there is little further risk, as they are quite safe to handle.
   SYMPTOMS
   Even small doses of oxalate toxin is enough to cause intense sensations of burning in the mouth and throat, swelling, and choking.
   In larger doses, oxalate causes severe digestive upset, breathing difficulties, and—if enough is consumed—convulsions, coma, and death. Recovery from severe oxalate poisoning is possible, but permanent liver and kidney damage may have occurred.
   LACELEAF POISON INFORMATION
   Oxalates
   Oxalates are unstable salts of oxalic acid. When eaten, they break down to release the highly poisonous acid.
   The sour flavour of sorrel (Rumex species), wood sorrel (Oxalis), and even rhubarb is due to the presence of the acid.
   Some plants may contain differing amounts of potassium or calcium salts, rendering them unsafe, particularly in the buckwheat and goosefoot families.
