Prussian Blue Insoluble
Prussian blue (insoluble ferric hexacyanoferrate) is an ion-exchange compound that binds radioactive cesium-137 and thallium ions with high affinity within the gastrointestinal tract, preventing their absorption and reabsorption, thereby accelerating their elimination via fecal excretion. It is approved as an antidote for internal contamination with radioactive cesium-137 and non-radioactive thallium, significantly reducing their biological half-lives.
