Autoclaving Copper(II) sulfate solution is not advisable for sterilization. The high temperatures and pressures can cause the decomposition of Copper(II) sulfate, potentially releasing harmful fumes and altering the solution's chemical composition. Instead, consider using alternative sterilization methods, such as filtration or chemical sterilization, that do not involve high temperatures.
