Potassium Iodide is a salt of stable (non-radioactive) Iodine that can protect the thyroid gland from
radiation injury by preventing the absorption of radioactive iodine. The thyroid gland is the most
radioactive Iodine-sensitive organ in the human body and needs appropriate protection. Lab
Alley’s Potassium Iodide, 10% Solution is composed of around 5-10 wt.% of pure Potassium
Iodide solid dissolved in aqueous solution. Chemically pure or Laboratory reagents are the two
terms often used to describe Lab Grade chemicals. Lab Grade chemicals do not meet any accepted
quality or purity requirements such as the ACS Grade, the USP Grade, and the FCC Grade, despite
their acceptable purity. In the United States of America (USA), Lab Alley is selling its high-quality Potassium Iodide, 10% Solution, Lab Grade online at laballey.com. Due to its high purity, this Lab
Alley product is highly recommended for labs and commercial applications.
