   For treating eczema, it is recommended using for a few days at a time due to the possibility of it irritating the skin. [10] Higher concentration solutions can result in chemical burns. [11] Therefore, the British National Formulary recommends 100 mg be dissolved in a liter of water before use to form a 1:10,000 (0.01%) solution.

   The reagent is an alkaline solution of potassium permanganate. Reaction with double or triple bonds (R 2 C=CR 2 or R−C≡C−R) causes the color to fade from purplish-pink to brown. Aldehydes and formic acid (and formates) also give a positive test. [43] The test is antiquated. Baeyer's reagent reaction

   If the diagnosis is uncertain, direct microscopy of a potassium hydroxide preparation of a skin scraping (known as a KOH test) can confirm the diagnosis of athlete's foot and help rule out other possible causes, such as candidiasis, pitted keratolysis, erythrasma, contact dermatitis, eczema, or psoriasis.

6. Permanganic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanganic_acid

   Potassium permanganate, KMnO 4, is a widely used, versatile and powerful oxidising agent. Permanganic acid solutions are unstable, and gradually decompose into manganese dioxide, oxygen, and water, with initially formed manganese dioxide catalyzing further decomposition. [6] Decomposition is accelerated by heat, light, and acids.
