Sulfuric acid poisoning
Definition
Sulfuric acid is a very strong chemical that is corrosive. Corrosive means it can cause severe burns and tissue damage when it comes into contact with the skin or mucous membranes.

Definition ...
sulfuric acid A strong acid that, when concentrated, is extremely corrosive to the skin and mucous membranes. It is used in making fertilizers, dyes, electroplating, and industrial explosives.
Sulfuric acid has been called oil of vitriol in pre-scientific times, due to its viscous consistency. Even in modern times, it is sometimes called vitriolic acid, and caustic personalities are called "vitriolic".
Acids (such as sulfuric acid found in car batteries) or alkalis (such as lye found in drain cleaner and ammonia) can splash into the eyes.
Rubbing the eye can transfer chemicals from the skin on the hands to the eye.
Chemicals such as sulfuric acid can burn the skin.
Electricity (especially alternating currents) may also burn the skin.
Inhalation of fumes, smoke, or steam can cause Burns.
So are people exposed to certain chemical fumes such as sulfuric acid, ammonia and chlorine gases. Even chronic exposure to some organic substances, including grain dust, sugar cane, and bird and animal droppings, can damage your lungs.
Sulfuric acid is flushed with a mild, soapy solution if the burns are not severe. Sulfuric acid feels hot when water is added to the acid, but it is better to flush the area and not leave the acid on the skin.

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has listed the ingredients of Cancell as the chemicals inositol, nitric acid, sodium sulfite, potassium hydroxide, sulfuric acid, and catechol (see Question 3).
About 90 percent of a dose of testosterone is excreted in the urine as glucuronic and sulfuric acid conjugates of testosterone and its metabolites; about six percent of a dose is excreted in the feces, mostly in the unconjugated form.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has listed the components as inositol, nitric acid, sodium sulfite, potassium hydroxide, sulfuric acid, and catechol.
A major source of the smog is automobile exhaust fumes, which contain two deadly chemicals: vaporized lead and sulfuric acid. Lead fumes, inhaled into the body, cause the destruction of red blood cells.
All vehicle batteries contain sulfuric acid and produce hydrogen and oxygen gases. If the gases come into contact with a spark, flame or a lit cigarette, the battery can explode, sending battery fragments and acid flying.

Most car batteries, for example, use an electrolyte which contains sulfuric acid, which is why they require careful handling. Alkaline batteries use an alkaline solution for their electrolyte.
