Article Abstract

We report here a case of allergic eczematoid dermatitis related to hemodialysis access. The patient was initially suspected to have puncture needle allergies or dialyzer reactions until the patient develops a similar response after switching from an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) to a tunneled cuffed catheter (TCC) for dialysis. Thereby, we highly suspected that the allergen was the iodine-containing disinfectant used prior to dialysis, and the patient was ultimately diagnosed with iodine-containing disinfectant allergy. The patient's dermatitis improved remarkably after switching to alcohol disinfection as well as taking oral steroids. Early identification and diagnosis of allergic reactions at the vascular access site can avoid contacting with allergens, accordingly prevent complications like infection and loss of precious vascular accesses in these patients.

Iodinated disinfection byproducts (I-DBPs) are increasingly detected in drinking water due to the widespread use of chlorination and the presence of iodide (I) in source waters. However, understanding the transformation of iodine species during disinfection remains challenging, particularly under varying ammonia concentrations. In this study, a method based on spectrophotometry and HPLC was applied to quantify I, hypoiodous acid (HOI), and iodate (IO) in various water matrices.

Long-term use of iron pipes leads to inevitable corrosion due to chemical and biological processes, with sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) playing a significant role. The corrosion products generated will affect the transformation of micropollutants in pipe networks. This study investigated the effect of SRB-influenced corrosion (SIC) on the transformation of iodine-containing micropollutants, using iopamidol (IPM) as a model compound.

Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy and mechanical properties of two experimental self-disinfecting alginate preparations utilising two different antimicrobial agents; povidone-iodine and silver nanoparticles.

Methods: Alginate moulds were assigned into three groups. Additives-free control group, povidone-iodine-containing group, and silver nanoparticle-containing group.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers measured reaction rates of chlorine with two compounds from seaweed, monoiodotyrosine (MIT) and diiodotyrosine (DIT), finding that temperature increases the rate of these reactions.
  • * The study identified multiple toxic byproducts formed during chlorination, with some having significant health risks, revealing the dangers of cooking with iodine-rich foods.
