Abstract

An improved skin decontaminant for CS, CN, and related chemicals has been developed. This decontaminant consists of 5% sodium bisulfite by weight dissolved in a mixture of 45% isopropyl alcohol, 40% water, and 10 percent glycerin by volume. This solution is highly effective in relieving the skin irritating effects of the riot control agents CS and CN.
