âThere are a number of physical signs of kidney disease, but sometimes people attribute them to other conditions. Also, those with kidney disease tend not to experience symptoms until the very late stages, when the kidneys are failing or when there are large amounts of protein in the urine.
SULFUR DIOXIDE is acidic. Reacts exothermically with bases such as amines, amides, metal oxides, and hydroxides. Frequently used as a reducing agent although it is not a powerful one. Acts as a reducing bleach to decolorize many materials.
Dissolves in water to form sulfurous acid, a corrosive liquid. Moist sulfur dioxide is very corrosive due to the slow formation of sulfuric acid [Handling Chemicals Safely 1980 p. 876]. Fire Hazard. Containers may explode in heat of fire or they may rupture and release irritating toxic sulfur dioxide.
