Effect of intestinal parasite treatment on the efficacy of oral iodized oil for correcting iodine deficiency in schoolchildren.
Starch grains were visualized by a weak solution of iodine (0.3 g iodine and 1.5 g potassium iodide in 100 ml water).
A single intramuscular injection of 480 mg of iodine in oil was found to protect against deficiency for at least 3 years.
In second series of calculations we have modeled the interaction of a nanosecond iodine laser with a two-layered target.
Below the aortic valve, on the left ventricular surface, a two centimeter-long vegetation was debrided and the left: ventricle and aorta rinsed with iodine solution.
The nodules were cleaned with 0-2 % iodine in ethanol, and hairs, pads and bones were removed.
Whether with injections or oral capsules, the experience with iodine supplementation is informative.
It should be noted that salt iodization is not the only intervention for iodine deficiency.
