Which organs are affected by cyanide poisoning?

The binding of cyanide to cytochrome c oxidase prevents transport of electrons from cytochrome c to oxygen in the mitochondria.As a result, the electron transport chain is disrupted, meaning that the cell can no longer aerobically produce ATP for energy. The central nervous system and the heart, are particularly affected. Oral ingestion of a small quantity of solid cyanide or a cyanide solution as little as 200 mg, or to airborne cyanide of 270 ppm is sufficient to cause a very painful death within minutes.The binding of cyanide to cytochrome c oxidase prevents transport of electrons from cytochrome c to oxygen in the mitochondria.As a result, the electron transport chain is disrupted, meaning that the cell can no longer aerobically produce ATP for energy.
