IODINE AS A DISINFECTANT

For many people, iodine is most familiar as a disinfectant.  Traditionally, mothers put iodine on small scrapes.  And hospitals today use iodine-based products as disinfectants.

Gottardi is world recognized for his work on iodine disinfectants, as well as iodine aqueous chemistry.  He sees iodine as an excellent microbicide with a broad range of action that includes almost all of the important health-related microorganisms, such as enteric bacteria, enteric viruses, bacterial viruses, and protozoan cysts.

Thomas has written extensively on iodine and e-coli.

Kessler discusses Symbollon's unique iodine disinfectants, based on a process that provides molecular iodine upon admixture.  This is a similar process to the one underlying IoGen, which is being tested for breast issues.

Iodine is sometimes used as a disinfectant in swimming pools.
