  Iodate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An iodate is a salt of iodic acid.
In the iodate anion, iodine is bonded to three oxygen atoms and the molecular formula is IO Iodates are a class of chemical compounds containing this group.
Iodates are used in the Iodine clock reaction.

 Potassium Iodate 85 mg 200 capsules
Potassium Iodate is known to prevent radioactive iodine from reaching the thyroid gland and causing cancer.
Potassium Iodate is safe, and very similar to the ingredient in table salt that makes it "iodized." Gases dispersed during a radiation emergency (i.e., nuclear attack, nuclear power plant accident) contain a radioactive form of iodine, readily taken-up by the human thyroid gland.
Potassium Iodate is a superior form of Potassium Iodide because of its extended shelf life and lack of bitter taste.

 057. Iodate, potassium (FAO Nutrition Meetings Report Series 40abc)
Biological Data Biochemical aspects It is presumed that the oxidizing effects of potassium iodate on flour proteins are essentially similar to those caused by other oxidizing agents; in addition, the formation or some halogenated compounds might be expected.
In the rat the inhibiting effect of iodine on the functional activity of the thyroid is intensified by deficiency of dietary protein or by an excessive proportion of vegetable protein or of vegetable and animal fat in the diet (Shtenberg and Plotnikova, 1960).
Comments There is a paucity of information on the effect of iodates on the nutritional value of flour and no long-term, studies appear to have been carried out on iodate-treated flour or bread made from it.

Examples are the precipitation of plutonium oxalate (C2O42–) and iodate (IO3–) compounds, which were recognized early on as excellent candidates for plutonium separation owing to their remarkably low solubility in slightly acidic solutions.
Despite the fact that oxalate and iodate compounds have been applied for about 50 years in large-scale separations, the nature and composition of the actual precipitates are still under debate.
Although this is the first architecture of its kind among the f-element iodates, this structure suggests the possibility of the synthesis of new microporous lanthanide iodates with unique selectivity properties for ion-exchange, catalysis, and photochemical processes.
