Extended data:

Iodine tincture needs to be deiodified with alcohol. The price is relatively cheap. Iodine, commonly known as iodine, is actually a substance, which is commonly called tincture of iodine in medicine.

Iodophor tincture is a disinfectant, and its active ingredient is iodine. The difference is that tincture of iodine takes ethanol as the solvent, and iodophor takes water as the solvent (of course, iodine is insoluble in water, and it is made through a special process), and the effect is the same, and iodophor is more widely used than tincture of iodine in a sense.

Because iodophor is made of water, it has no irritation to skin, mucous membrane and wound, and is better than tincture of iodine. Now it is widely used as a disinfectant for muscle, intravenous injection, external use and surgical skin.
