Iodine Veterinary and Agricultural Applications
Highlights
Iodine is a powerful bactericide and fungicide and is active against viruses. Iodine and iodine complex preparations are widely used as disinfectants in veterinary medicine, particularly in the post-milking disinfection of udders. These new preparations are more potent antiseptics than current iodine preparations and have counter-irritating properties. They are useful for treating animals’ skin problems and as general veterinary antiseptics Our Innovation
This new formulation is composed of solid iodine or povidone iodine dissolved in tetraglycol (glycofurol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol polyethyleneglycol ether). The iodine can be at a concentration of between 0.00001 and 50%. Water may be added without affecting the solubility of the iodine in the tetraglycol, enabling the preparation of water-based solutions.
