The use of diffuse reflection spectroscopy made it possible to determine the optical properties of the mucous membrane of the oral cavity of a pig. The binary diffusion coefficient of iodine in Lugol's composition (aqueous solution of iodine (0.01 w/w), potassium iodide (0.02 w/w) and glycerol (0.94 w/w)) was determined for the first time ex vivo in the lining of the alveolar gingiva pigs: (8.86±0.75)·10–7 cm2/s. For the first time, the binary diffusion coefficient of glycerol was determined in the composition of Lugol (an aqueous solution of iodine (0.01 w/w), potassium iodide (0.02 w/w), and glycerol (0.94 w/w)) ex vivo in the lining of the alveolar gingiva pigs: (6.44±0.62)·10-7 cm2/s. It was revealed that after complete staining of the gingiva with a dye, radiation does not pass into the biological tissue from 200-600 nm, which includes the areas of iodine absorption peaks, and starting from 650-800 nm, the effect of optical clearing is observed with an efficiency of up to 120%.
