Other considerations for iodine compounds:
Volatilization of iodine is the most significant
hazard.
o
Simply opening a vial of sodium iodide (NaI)
at high-radioactive concentrations can cause
minute droplets to become airborne.
o
Solutions containing iodide ions should not be
made acidic nor stored frozen; both lead to
formation of volatile elemental iodine.
o
Some iodide compounds can penetrate
surgical rubber gloves - wear two pairs or
polyethylene gloves over rubber.
o
Can be easily absorbed through the skin.
