Lecture 23 found on Google under nascent iodine search describes a reaction in the thyroid where "Iodide is first oxidized either into nascent iodine I (I with elevated 0) or I (I with sub 3-)."
Or both considered nascent iodine?
How is nascent iodine describe best?
Is nascent iodine the same as Atomic Iodine used in Iodine lasers?
Thanks
