In my kits I carry Potable Aqua. According to the manufacturer, it's "a proprietary compound called TGHP (Tetraglycine Hydroperiodide). Each tablet contains 20 milligrams of TGHP, which liberates 8 milligrams (ppm) of titratable iodine." The recommend 2 tablets per quart or liter when disinfecting water.

My questions for the chemist/medical types are, when mixed with water, can this be used for other purposes like a tincture of iodine in disinfecting wounds? If so, how much water should it be mixed with for disinfecting as opposed to water purification?

If able, this could eliminate one thing in the kit, since multiple uses of kit items is desirable.

Thoughts?
Thanks
