Description
General description
-
Volumetric analysis and titrationsIodine solution is used in standardized solutions for accurate volumetric analysis and titrations.
-
Testing for starchIodine solution is used to test for the presence of starch in chemical laboratory analysis. When iodine reacts with starch, the color turns blue.
-
Wet mountsIodine solution is used in wet mounts of concentrated fecal material to stain glycogen and make nuclei visible in protozoan cysts.
-
Haematology stainingLugol’s iodine is used as a staining solution for wet mount and other haematology staining. It is used to detect intestinal protozoa and helminth ova or larvae in wet mount preparations.
Application
-
- Topical Vancomycin vs. Povidone-Iodine Treatment in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Keratitis: Demonstrates iodine solution′s role in biotechnological antimicrobial treatments, comparing its efficacy against advanced antibiotic solutions in a controlled clinical setting (Alkan et al., 2024).
-
- Iodine-induced synthetic method and pharmacokinetic study: Details the use of iodine solutions in the synthesis and pharmacokinetics of crocetin, highlighting its potential in drug development and material science applications (Li et al., 2024).
Features and Benefits
This volumetric solution is analyzed by our calibration laboratory D-K-15185-01-00 which is accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 for analysis of amount-of-substance concentrations in volumetric solutions by DAkkS (Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle – German National Accreditation Body).
Analysis Note
Amount-of-substance concentration 0.04975 – 0.05025 mol/L
Measurement uncertainty ± 0.00015 mol/L
Traceability NIST SRM
The concentration is determined by volumetric titration and refers to 20°C.
The amount-of-substance concentration of this volumetric solution is determined with standardized sodium thiosulfate solution. The sodium thiosulfate solution is standardized and traceable to a primary standard reference material (SRM) from the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, USA (NIST SRM 136 potassium dichromate) by means of volumetric standard potassium iodate (article number 1.02404), certified reference material according to ISO 17034, analyzed by our accredited calibration laboratory of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025. The uncertainty is expressed as expanded measurement uncertainty with a coverage factor k=2 covering a confidence level of 95%.
Note: The titer is a correction factor to correct for variations of the volumetric solution, the titration equipment, the temperature and other laboratory conditions. For correct titration results it is recommended to determine a titer with the laboratory specific equipment and under laboratory specific conditions directly after opening a new bottle and at regular time intervals.
