iodinated
Given element fifty-three
Iodinated means treated or combined with iodine.
The term appears most often in medical and scientific contexts: iodinated contrast dye for imaging scans, iodinated salt to prevent deficiency.
The process adds iodine atoms to a compound, typically for diagnostic, therapeutic, or nutritional purposes.
