Iod-Izd-Oil (Miller’s) is said to be an “Iodine Combination” made “from the same Soluble Soot Iodine as is IODUM-MILLER.” It is said to “liberate Free Soluble Iodine” when applied to the skin, mucous surfaces, etc. It is further defined as “Soluble Iodine combined with water-white Hydrocarbon Oil” and is said to liberate “Soluble Iodine 2 per cent.” While these statements suggest that Iod-Izd-Oil (Miller’s) contains the iodin-potassium iodid combination contained in Iodum-Miller, analysis indicated the oil to be a simple solution of iodin in liquid petrolatum. Quantitative determinations indicated, not 2 per cent. of iodin, as claimed, but only 0.42 per cent. and all of this was present as free iodin.
