I think picric acid used to have some medical uses a very long time ago. I once read that it was applied to the skin of some people who had been burned in the Hindenburg diaster.

It’s a tissue fixative (glue). It’s yellow.

I have used a milder form on the ranch for years to help close up bulls (steers) post-castration.
