General description

Lugol′s solution is a ready-to-use, diluted iodine-potassium iodide solution that is used in bacteriology.

Application

Lugol′s solution is generally used as a mordant in Gram staining. It is suitable for the detection of starch in plants. Lugol solution 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. Additionally, 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.
