2. Potassium iodide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_iodide

   Potassium iodide is a component in the electrolyte of dye sensitised solar cells (DSSC) along with iodine. Potassium iodide finds its most important applications in organic synthesis mainly in the preparation of aryl iodides in the Sandmeyer reaction, starting from aryl amines. Aryl iodides are in turn used to attach aryl groups to other ...

3. Iodine (medical use) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_(medical_use)

   A saturated solution of potassium iodide is used to treat acute thyrotoxicosis. It is also used to block uptake of iodine-131 in the thyroid gland (see isotopes section above), when this isotope is used as part of radiopharmaceuticals (such as iobenguane) that are not targeted to the thyroid or thyroid-type tissues. [17] [18]

4. Lugol's iodine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lugol's_iodine

   Lugol's iodine, also known as aqueous iodine and strong iodine solution, is a solution of potassium iodide with iodine in water. [2] It is a medication and disinfectant used for a number of purposes.

5. Iodised salt - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodised_salt

   Four inorganic compounds are used as iodide sources, depending on the producer: potassium iodate, potassium iodide, sodium iodate, and sodium iodide. Any of these compounds supplies the body with the iodine required for the biosynthesis of thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3) hormones by the thyroid gland.

7. Tincture of iodine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tincture_of_iodine

   Tincture of iodine, iodine tincture, or weak iodine solution is an antiseptic. It is usually 2 to 3% elemental iodine, along with potassium iodide or sodium iodide, dissolved in a mixture of ethanol and water. Tincture solutions are characterized by the presence of alcohol.
