Determination of Iodate in Iodised Salt by Redox Titration
College of Science Determination of Iodate in Iodised Salt by Redox Titration Safety • 0.6 M potassium iodide solution (10 g solid KI made up to 100 mL with distilled water) • 0.5% starch indicator solution Lab coats, safety glasses and enclosed footwear must (see below for preparation) be worn at all times in the laboratory. • 250 mL volumetric flask Introduction • 50 mL pipette (or 20 and 10 mL pipettes) • 250 mL conical flasks New Zealand soil is low in iodine and hence New Zealand food is low in iodine. Until iodised salt was • 10 mL measuring cylinder commonly used (starting in 1924), a large proportion • burette and stand of school children were reported as being affected • distilled water by iodine deficiency – as high as 60% in Canterbury schools, and averaging 20 − 40% overall. In the worst cases this deficiency can lead to disorders such as Method goitre, and impaired physical and mental development. 1. Preparation of 0.002 mol L−1 sodium thiosulfate In earlier times salt was “iodised” by the addition of solution: Accurately weigh about 2.5 g of solid potassium iodide; however, nowadays iodine is more sodium thiosulfate (NaS2O3•5H2O) and dissolve in commonly added in the form of potassium iodate 100 mL of distilled water in a volumetric flask. (This gives a 0.1 mol L−1 solution). Then use a pipette to (KIO3). The Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code specifies that iodised salt must contain: “equivalent to transfer 10 mL of this solution to a 500 mL volumetric no less than 25 mg/kg of iodine; and no more than 65 flask and dilute by adding distilled water up to the mg/kg of iodine”. -

Toxic Exposures Kathy L
8 MODULE 8 Toxic Exposures Kathy L. Leham-Huskamp / William J. Keenan / Anthony J. Scalzo / Shan Yin 8 Toxic Exposures Kathy L. Lehman-Huskamp, MD William J. Keenan, MD Anthony J. Scalzo, MD Shan Yin, MD InTrODUcTIOn The first large-scale production of chemical and biological weapons occurred during the 20th century. World War I introduced the use of toxic gases such as chlorine, cyanide, an arsine as a means of chemical warfare. With recent events, such as the airplane attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City, people have become increasingly fearful of potential large-scale terrorist attacks. Consequently, there has been a heightened interest in disaster preparedness especially involving chemical and biological agents. The U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends an "all-hazards" approach to emergency planning. This means creating a simultaneous plan for intentional terrorist events as well as for the more likely unintentional public health emergencies, such as earthquakes, floods, hazardous chemical spills, and infectious outbreaks. Most large-scale hazardous exposures are determined by the type of major industries that exist and/or the susceptibility to different types of natural disasters in a given area. For example, in 1984 one of the greatest man-made disasters of all times occurred in Bhopal, India, when a Union Carbide pesticide plant released tons of methylisocyanate gas over a populated area, killing scores of thousands and injuring well over 250,000 individuals. The 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan demonstrated the vulnerability of nuclear power stations to natural disasters and the need to prepare for possible widespread nuclear contamination and radiation exposure. -
