Description
Iodine-potassium iodide solution according to Lugol is a classical microscopy reagent used for staining and visualisation work in the laboratory. Prepared for microscopy applications, it supports routine examination of biological specimens where iodine-based contrast is required. The solution has a density of approximately 1,01 g/cm³ and a boiling point of 100 °C, consistent with an aqueous preparation suitable for standard bench use. This variant is The formulation follows the well-known Lugol composition, making it familiar to histologists and microscopists who rely on iodine-potassium iodide reagents for carbohydrate and structural staining protocols. Offered by manufacturer Carl ROTH, the product fits chemical catalogues serving life-science and educational microscopy. Clear glass packaging aids visual inspection of the fill level and solution appearance before use. Ideal where a ready-to-use Lugol-type reagent is preferred over in-house preparation.
This article is part of Volumetric standard solutions (titration), in Analytical standards & reference materials.

Questions about Iodine-potassium iodide solution, acc. to Lugol, for microscopy, 250 ml, glass
What is this article?
Iodine-potassium iodide solution, acc. to Lugol, for microscopy, 250 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Volumetric standard solutions (titration), inside Analytical standards & reference materials, in Lab chemicals.
A volumetric standard solution is a reagent of stated concentration for titration, such as a stated molarity of acid, base or silver nitrate. The factor or the exact titre is on the certificate. Using the nominal molarity when a factor is printed is a systematic error.
A reference material is the article against which another result is compared. Its value is stated, and the uncertainty of that value is part of the product. An ICP or ion standard is a solution of known concentration. A volumetric standard is for titration. A chromatography standard is the peak you match. The grade names, including pharmacopoeia and ASTM, say which impurities were limited. Identity is checked on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Medicinal grades follow the European Pharmacopoeia and USP.
