introduction: effective debridement of the root canal system with chemical irrigants prior to obturation is the key to long-term success of endodontic therapy. the purpose of this study is to compare the antibacterial activity of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (naocl) and 2% iodine potassium iodide (iki) solutions as intracanal disinfectant in infected root canals during one-visit endodontic treatmen...

Iodine deficiency is a common phenomenon, threatening the whole global human population. Recommended daily intake of iodine is 150 μg for adults and 250 μg for pregnant and breastfeeding women. About 50% of human population can be at risk of moderate iodine deficiency. Due to this fact, increased iodine supplementation is recommended, through intake of iodized mineral water and salt iodization....

BACKGROUND Iodide transport defect (ITD) is a dyshormonogenetic congenital hypothyroidism caused by sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) gene mutations. In the lactating mammary gland, iodide is concentrated by NIS, and iodine for thyroid hormone synthesis is thereby supplied to the infant in the breast milk. CASE DESCRIPTION A 34-year-old Japanese woman was diagnosed with ITD caused by a homozygous...

Various investigators have reported on methods for the estimation of iodine in air, food, water, vegetables, tissue, and blood. Chatin (1) in 1851 used the method of Rabourdin (2) and established the presence of iodine in air. Rabourdin’s method depends on converting the iodine to potassium iodide, setting it free with nitrous acid, and extracting with carbon disulfide. Detection was possible i...

In the course of a comparative study of several methods for the determination of sugar in blood, the results of which will be recorded elsewhere, it became desirable to investigate the reaction betsveen copper sulfate and potassium iodide which is concerned in a number of methods for sugar determination (Bang (l), Maclean (2), Scales (3), Lehmann (4), Riegler (4), Peters (4), Kendall (5)). In c...
