The Thyrodine Iodide Quantitative Fluid Analyzer is an FDA approved instrument that precisely measures iodide concentrations in body fluids. The laboratory measurement can be used to measure iodine in body fluids for many physiological purposes and has significance depending on the application. The analyzer will very accurately report these parameters:

• Iodine in saliva as an indirect measurement of the interstitial iodine concentration level.
• Iodine in whole blood as an indirect measurement of the sodium/iodine symporter efficiency.
• Iodine in urine as an indicator of the body iodine sufficiency.
