2. Lugol's iodine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lugol's_iodine

   Lugol's iodine is a liquid made up of two parts potassium iodide for every one part elemental iodine in water. [8] Lugol's iodine was first made in 1829 by the French physician Jean Lugol. [7] [8] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. [9] [10] Lugol's iodine is available as a generic medication and over the ...

3. Potassium iodide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_iodide

   [17] [16] Potassium iodide can be administered as tablets or as Lugol's iodine solution. [16] The same dosage is recommended by the US Food and Drug Administration. [18] A single daily dose is typically sufficient for 24-hour protection. [16] However, in cases of prolonged or repeated exposure, health authorities may recommend multiple daily ...

4. Tincture of iodine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tincture_of_iodine

   Purified water is 50 mL and the balance is alcohol. This 7% tincture solution is about 3.5 times more concentrated than USP 2% tincture. [citation needed] As in the case of Lugol's iodine, the role of iodide in the solution is to increase the solubility of the elemental iodine, by turning it to the soluble triiodide anion I 3 −. However ...

5. Talk:Lugol's iodine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Lugol's_iodine

   It appears from reading the article that Lugol's Iodine is an aqueous solution of a 2:1 mixture of KI and I 2 by weight. This would correspond to a 3:1 molar ratio (which makes sense as I − needs to be in excess). Perhaps this could be written as "Lugol's Iodine is a solution of KI/I 2 (3:1) in water." IMO the details of the various ...

6. Triiodide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triiodide

   Lugol's iodine contains potassium iodide and a stoichiometric amount of elemental iodine, so that significant amounts of triiodide ion exist in this solution. Tincture of iodine, although nominally a solution of elemental iodine in ethanol, also contains significant amounts of triiodide, due to its content of both iodide and water.

7. Gram stain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gram_stain

   Lugol's iodine solution is always added after addition of crystal violet to form a stable complex with crystal violet that strengthen the bonds of the stain with the cell wall. [4] Gram staining is almost always the first step in the identification of a bacterial group.
