| General description: | Potassium iodide (KI) is an inorganic potassium salt. Alumina loaded with potassium iodide has been employed as catalyst for the transesterification of soybean oil with methanol. Influence of KI on the in vitro generation of polymorphonudear leukocyte (PMN)-derived oxygen intermediates has been investigated. |
