Sodium Iodide Supplier in Malaysia
Sodium Iodide supplier in Malaysia for laboratory, fermentation, cell-culture and formulation buyers purchasing a crystalline iodide salt against a defined specification. The material is distinct from potassium iodide, sodium iodate and elemental iodine, which require separate purchasing identities.
Commercial requirements include reagent and analytical grades, cell-culture or fermentation grades and material for specialised formulations. Buyers can state the purity or iodide-content basis, moisture, solution clarity, trace metals, other halides and microbiological controls needed by the application.
Laboratories use sodium iodide in analytical, biochemical and synthesis work, while manufacturers may specify it as an iodide source in media, fermentation, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, personal-care and selected process applications. This page covers the bulk salt without making a finished-product claim.
Sodium iodide is hygroscopic, so physical condition and moisture control form part of the receiving brief. Send the required grade, target specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documents and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

- Grade
- reagent, analytical, cell culture, formulation
- Appearance
- white crystalline powder or colourless crystals
Sodium Iodide grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Laboratory and analytical sodium iodide | white crystalline powder or colourless crystals | — | Reagent, analytical and process-development work that specifies identity, purity basis, moisture and trace-impurity limits. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Cell-culture and fermentation sodium iodide | crystalline powder with application-specific impurity controls | — | Cell-culture media, fermentation nutrients and biochemical manufacturing where iodide content, moisture and trace metals are defined by the process. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Formulation-grade sodium iodide | crystalline powder to a buyer-defined quality specification | — | Nutraceutical, pharmaceutical or personal-care formulation where the manufacturer sets purity, solution and document requirements for the salt. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Safety and handling
Keep tightly sealed in a cool, dry place and protect the hygroscopic crystals from moisture, light and contamination. Follow the handling information supplied for the quoted grade.
Common questions about Sodium Iodide
Is sodium iodide the same as potassium iodide?
No. They are different salts with different cations and specifications. State sodium iodide explicitly when that is the material required by the formulation or process.
How does sodium iodide differ from sodium iodate or iodine?
Sodium iodide supplies iodide, while sodium iodate contains iodate and elemental iodine is a separate chemical identity. They should not be used as aliases or substituted without technical review.
Which sodium iodide grade suits laboratory work?
Specify the analytical or reagent standard, purity basis, moisture limit, solution clarity and trace-impurity controls required by the method. Include any named test method in the enquiry.
What matters when buying sodium iodide for cell culture or fermentation?
State the media or fermentation application, iodide-content basis, moisture, trace-metal, microbial and document requirements. Suitability is assessed against the complete receiving specification.
Why does sodium iodide need moisture protection?
Sodium iodide is hygroscopic, so exposure to humid air can change its handling and moisture content. Keep the container tightly sealed and use the storage guidance for the supplied grade.
What is needed for a sodium iodide quotation in Malaysia?
Provide the grade, purity basis, impurity limits, application, quantity and delivery location. Mention packing and document needs so they can be addressed with the quotation.
