Potassium Iodide AR 500g

Potassium Iodide AR 500g

Potassium Iodide (KI) AR (Analytical Reagent) in 500g quantities is used for high-purity lab work, medical applications like thyroid protection during radiation, as an iodine supplement, in analytical chemistry (iodometry), as a sanitizing agent, and in the production of other chemicals like silver iodide, serving various needs in food, pharma, and research industries.

Its “AR” grade ensures high purity for these sensitive uses.

Key Uses of Potassium Iodide (AR Grade):
Medical & Pharmaceutical:
Thyroid Protection: Blocks radioactive iodine uptake in nuclear emergencies.
Hyperthyroidism Treatment: Used to manage overactive thyroid.
Skin Conditions: Treats certain fungal infections (sporotrichosis) and inflammatory skin issues.
Laboratory & Analytical:
Analytical Chemistry: A key reagent in iodometry (titrations).
Chemical Synthesis: Source for aryl iodides and making silver iodide.
Research: Biomedical and general analytical research.
Industrial & Food:
Sanitizing Agent: Used for food processing equipment and hygiene products.
Dietary:
Iodine Supplement: Can be used to prevent iodine deficiency (under medical guidance).
Important Considerations:
Purity: “AR” grade signifies it’s suitable for precise analytical and research work.
Safety: KI has health risks (irritation, allergic reactions) and should only be used as directed by professionals, especially in medical or emergency contexts.

The lab grade potassium Iodide is used for analytic research in biomedical sector as well as source of aryl iodide.
