In the routine thyrotropin assay based upon the depletion of iodine in the chick thyroid gland following thyrotropin injections, a rapid micromethod for the determination of iodine was desirable. Elmer (1) gives an excellent critical review of the existing methods for iodine determination up to 1936. Kirk (2) reviews the present methods and techniques for microanalysis, including iodine. The me...

iodine is essential element in thyroid hormones synthesis and normal growth and development of the brain. milk and iodine concentrations can be appropriate indicator of body iodine status; in this study, we evaluated the concentrations of urine and milk iodine in newborns and their mothers.in a cross-sectional study conducted in 2013, urine and milk iodine in 106 neonates and their mothers refe...

Iodine is an essential micronutrient especially important in the neurodevelopment of infants. Spot samples of urinary iodine (UI) are used as an epidemiologic index of adult iodine nutrition. Individual infant iodine nutrition is of vital importance, but infant urine is difficult to collect, much less a 24 h sample. Monitoring the intake provides a pragmatic solution for determining infant iodi...

Micronutrient deficiency diseases adversely affect the health of some 2 billion people, mostly in the developing world. Deficiencies of iodine, iron and vitamin A have devastating effects. The Copenhagen Consensus in 2008 listed iron fortification among the 3 most important problems in development. While micronutrients are inexpensive, their delivery is often thwarted by technological, social a...

Fit the nozzle of a 4 oz. or 8 oz. glass syringe into a Jacques' catheter of the required size and charge the catheter and the syringe with weak iodine solution. Introduce the catheter into the bottom of the cavity to be drained. Inject the solution slowly into it and draw the contents of the cavity into the syringe. Take the syringe out, leaving the catheter still in the cavity, and throw out ...

Thirty-two dental students between 19-29 years of age with no pathologic pockets performed supervised oral hygiene (daily supervision with the Plak-Lite® dis­ closing system) 3 1 for 6 weeks. Following this period, the gingiva of all buccal and lingual tooth surfaces was assessed using the Gingival Index system. 2 Oral hy­ giene was scored on all surfaces according to the criteria of the Plaque...

upon by me the next morning-. Amputation by the modified circular method was performed a few inches below the shoulder joint, and a drainage tube inserted. The following are brief notes of this case after operation:? 28-7-26. Temperature 102.5 ?F in the morning, and 103?F in the evening. One pint of saline given intravenously. Blood films examined for malarial parasites with negative result. 10...

Background Aerosolization of respiratory droplets is considered the main route coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Therefore, reducing viral load Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) shed via potentially an ideal strategy to prevent spread pandemic. The in vitro virucidal activity intranasal Povidone-Iodine (PVP-I) has been demonstrated recently reduce SARS-CoV-2 titres...
