Instructions / Protocol / Recommendations
Verwendung:
LUGOL solution (iodine-potassium iodite) is an in vitro diagnostic solution used for staining tissue samples. It enables differentiation of cell structures and helps identify pathological changes, which is essential for diagnosis and research in histology, cytology and pathology. The solution consists of aqua dist./VE water, iodine and potassium iodide.
Prinzip:
Iodine-potassium iodite (LUGOL's solution) is a diagnostic solution consisting of 1000 ml distilled water, 13.0 g iodine and 20.0 g potassium iodide. It is used in in vitro diagnostics to visualize thyroid structures by selectively absorbing iodine and making it appear darker. The highly concentrated iodide form allows rapid and uniform uptake and a clear picture of thyroid morphology. It aids in the assessment of thyroid dysfunction and enables targeted treatment planning.
