Asked by PRAJAY RAIKAR | 28 Nov, 2013, 05:15: PM
Expert Answer
The yellow stains on skin caused by nitric acid upon reaction with proteins on the skin are the result of the xanthoprotein reaction. If you put a neutralizer on it, it will then turn the skin orange. The protein comes from eating fruits and vegetables that are orange and red in colour.
