TL;DR: It is hypothesized that dietary iodine deficiency is associated with the development of mammary pathology and cancer and a review of the literature on this correlation and of the author's own work on the antioxidant function of iodide in iodide-concentrating extrathyroidal cells is reported.

TL;DR: Changes in the speciation of inorganic dissolved iodine in nutrient-enriched seawater during the growth of a variety of phytoplankton taxa, including the cold water pennate diatoms Nitzschia and Navicula are reported.

TL;DR: Although most seaweed samples contain some amount of perchlorate, the great majority contains iodide in so much higher amount that at least for the commonly used Laminaria species, the iodide/perchlorate ratio is greater than the square of the per chlorate to iodide selectivity factor reported for the mammalian NIS and should thus lead to net beneficial iodine nutrition even in a two-stage mother-infant scenario.

TL;DR: An innovative AOP using a combination of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and iodide ions (I-) for the selective removal of phenolic pollutants from aqueous solutions is developed and evidence that iodide atoms were the dominant oxidants is found.
Abstract: The development of environmentally friendly, oxidation-selective advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for water decontamination is important for resource recovery, carbon dioxide abatement, and cost savings. In this study, we developed an innovative AOP using a combination of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) and iodide ions (I–) for the selective removal of phenolic pollutants from aqueous solutions. The results showed that nearly 100% degradation of phenol, bisphenol A, and hydroquinone was achieved after reaction for 4 min in the presence of 65 μM PMS and 50 μM I–. PMS-I– oxidation had a wide effective pH range, with the best performance achieved under circumneutral conditions. The ratio between [PMS] and [I–] influenced the degradation, and the optimal ratio was approximately 1.00 for the degradation of the phenols. Neither sulfate nor hydroxyl radicals were found to be the active species in PMS-I– oxidation. Instead, we found evidence that iodide atoms were the dominant oxidants. In addition, both Cl– and Br– a...

TL;DR: Perchlorate's potential to adversely affect neurodevelopment is summarized and the probability of a permanent adverse effect is greatest during early life, as successful neuro development is TH-dependent.
