    Description

    Lugol's solution, 5% iodine -
    1 fluid ounce
    Lugol's solution is a solution of iodine and iodide in water, and is used as a topical disinfectant and antiseptic, an emergency water disinfectant, as an iodine source for saltwater aquariums,
    as an iodine supplement,
    and for other uses.  Invented in 1829 by the French physician Lugol, it has been tried and true for 180 years.
    This solution comes in an amber glass bottle with an eye dropper.
    Ingredients are iodine, potassium iodide, and distilled water.
    All ingredients are of USP/food grade.  Each full eyedropper contains approximately 85mg of iodine, and about 5.2mg iodine per drop.  The iodine solution can gradually corrode the rubber in the eyedropper, so a teflon-lined cap is supplied for storage
    .
    SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION
    Elemental diatomic iodine forms I- anions in solution with water, which is very poorly soluable.  The addition of a highly soluble iodide, such as potassium iodide, allows the diatomic molecule of iodine (I2) to combine with the I- anion of the potassium iodide to form the I3- ion, which is highly soluble in water, thus allowing the elemental iodine to dissolve.
    PRECAUTIONS
    As elemental iodine is a halogen and an oxidizer, overuse of this product on the skin may result in chemical burns and skin lesions.  This solution is moderately strong.  Keep out of eyes.  Follow all rules and guidelines for topical use, dietary use and water disinfection.
