EMD Millipore Corporation is recalling 5 units of Lugol’s Iodine Solution (500ML) due to the use of incorrect packaging. The affected product, identified by Part Number 624-71 and Lot Number 3124, has an improper seal between the cap and the bottle. This defect allows iodine vapors to escape, causing the concentration of the solution to drop below its required specifications over time. These units were distributed in California, New Jersey, and West Virginia.
The improper seal allows iodine vapors to dissipate from the bottle, which reduces the potency of the solution. This can lead to inaccurate laboratory results or ineffective use in medical applications because the concentration will be lower than the required 24.8 to 27.2 mL specification.
