General description

Sodium iodide (NaI) is an inorganic salt. It can be prepared by reacting sodium carbonate with iron(II,III) iodide. Chlorotrimethylsilane/Sodium iodide in acetonitrile is a superior reagent than iodotrimethylsilane for the facile cleavage of esters, lactones, carbamates and ethers.

Application

Sodium iodide (NaI) may be used in the preparation of sodium hydroxide-sodium iodide reagent for the modified Winkler method for the determination of dissolved oxygen. It may be used in the preparation of methylene iodide.

Iodide excess acutely downregulates NIS mRNA expression, as already demonstrated. PCCl3 cells treated or not with NaI, NaI+NaClO(4) or NaI+Methimazole, for 30 min to 24 h, were used to further explore how iodide reduces NIS gene expression. NIS mRNA expression
