A man found dead with circumstantial evidence indicating exposure to sulfuric acid vapor. He had been applying a solution of concentrated sulfuric acid to a drain pipe in an attempt to clear a blockage. External examination showed moderate corrosive damage around his mouth and nose, on his forearms and tips of fingers of his left hand. Autopsy revealed congestion of the respiratory passages, as well as severe pulmonary edema. Traces of acid and sulfate compounds were chemically detected in his upper respiratory passages. Death was attributed to accidental inhalation of fumes of strong sulfuric acid during application to blocked drainpipes.
一名男子被发现死亡，有间接证据表明其接触过硫酸蒸气。他一直在往排水管中倒入浓硫酸溶液以试图疏通堵塞。外部检查显示其口鼻周围、前臂和左手手指尖有中度腐蚀性损伤。尸检发现呼吸道充血以及严重肺水肿。在其上部呼吸道化学检测到酸和硫酸盐化合物的痕迹。死亡原因是在疏通堵塞排水管时意外吸入浓硫酸烟雾。
