Descripción general

Lugol′s solution is a ready-to-use solution that comprises 6% iodine in 4% potassium iodide. It is commonly used as a mordant for Gram staining in bacteriology.[1] It is used for staining bacterial target structures for diagnostic purposes by fixing, staining, counterstaining, and mounting bacteriological specimen materials.

Aplicación

  • Lugol′s solution is generally used as a mordant in Gram staining, and for fixing invertebrate blood cells and protozoa.[1]
  • It is suitable for the detection of starch in plants.
  • It has been used in a study to assess narrow-band imaging without image magnification for detecting high-grade dysplasia and intramucosal esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
  • It has been used in a study to determine its benefit in aiding the detection, presence, and spread of small squamous cell carcinomas of the esophagus.

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas

Iodine diffuses rapidly through hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains of tissues and loosely binds to proteins, staining them brown. It reacts irreversibly with unsaturated lipid linkages and with tyrosine and histidine aromatic rings.[1]

Características y beneficios

  • Ready-to-use solution.

Principio

In bacteriology, Gram staining allows rapid differentiation between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The mureine structure of the bacterial cell wall is the basis of the color affinity. Bacteria are first stained with the primary stain, crystal violet. Lugol solution is added thereafter as the mordant, forming crystal violet-iodine complexes. During the decolorization, these complexes stay entrapped in the multilayer mureine structure of the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria which appear blue-violet. Gram-negative bacteria have a single-layered cell wall that does not retain the dye-iodine complexes and are counterstained with safranine solution, appearing pink.

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. Which Lugol`s solution for phytoplankton preservation sample used?

    1 answer
    1. This product is not suitable for preserving or fixing phytoplankton. No strong iodine solutions are offered for sale due to regulatory issues. Only weak solutions of iodine are available, generally containing about 1% combined iodine and potassium iodide. Strong solutions suitable for parasitology or for use in preserving phytoplankton are not available.

  2. Buenas tardes. Por favor, pueden especificar las concentraciones de I2 y KI en las siguientes soluciones de Lugol (32922, 62650, y L6146)? No encuentro la información en su página web. Gracias

    1 answer
    1. The composition of product 32922 is considered proprietary. The exact percentages of I2 and KI cannot be stated. The SDS for 32922 does state the composition for the Iodine is between 0.1% to less than 1%. This would suggest the composition of 32922 is comparable other standard "weak Lugol" formulations. Products L6146 and 62650 can be classified as "weak Lugol" formulations. Product L6146 and 62650 are formulated to contain approximately 0.35% Iodine and 0.70% Potassium Iodide. While the concentration of L6146 is a bit higher at 0.37% Iodine and 0.74% Potassium Iodide, there is no functional difference between these two products.

      ​​​​​​​There are "strong" Lugol formulations that can approach a combined I2 and KI concentration of between 10 to 15%. These "strong" formulations are intended for use in procedures for parasitology. 32922, 62650 and L6146 are not suitable for use in procedures for parasitology.

  3. What are the differences between Lugol solution, products 32922 & 62650?

    1 answer
    1. The composition of product 32922 is provided in the Certificate of Analysis, while for product 62650, only the density is reported. The formulations of the two products appear to be the same, but there is a difference in the amount of quality control testing performed and reported. Both products are intended for Research Use Only and should be viewed as "weak" Lugol Iodine solutions.
