Excess iodine exposure acutely increases salivary iodide and antimicrobial hypoiodous acid concentrations in humans
The lactoperoxidase (LPO)-hydrogen peroxide-halides reaction (LPO system) converts iodide and thiocyanate (SCN(−)) into hypoiodous acid (HOI) and hypothiocyanite (OSCN(−)), respectively. Since this system has been implicated in defense of the airways and oropharynx from microbial invasion, in this p...
