AAA battery leaked all over my TV remote control. Poisonous or just nasty?

Asked by elbanditoroso (33145points) October 11th, 2013

TV remote control has some small crystal structure on the outside – when I opened the battery compartment, one of the batteries had leaked and blown. (cheap Japanese battery, not US brand).

I got some of the chemical on my fingers.

Is this poisonous in some way? Any precautions i need to take?
