Re:

International Isotopes, Inc.
Request for Withdrawal of Amendment No. 1 on Form S-3

to SB-2 Registration Statement (File No. 333-142674)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

On June 6, 2008, International Isotopes, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Company"), filed an Amendment No. 1 on Form S-3 to Form SB-2 Registration Statement (File No. 333-142674) (together with the exhibits thereto, the "Registration Statement Amendment") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").

Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act, the Company hereby requests that the Commission consent to the withdrawal of the Registration Statement Amendment and further requests that the Registration Statement Amendment be withdrawn as of the date hereof or at the earliest practicable date hereafter.  The Company is requesting such withdrawal because the Registration Statement Amendment was intended to be filed as a Post-Effective Amendment to Registration Statement (POS AM).  However, the EDGAR tag associated with the Registration Statement Amendment and cover page to the Registration Statement Amendment incorrectly indicate that such filing was a pre-effective amendment (S-3/A)   The Registration Statement Amendment has not been declared effective by the Commission and no securities have been issued or sold under the Registration Statement Amendment.  Therefore, withdrawal of the Registration Statement is consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors, as contemplated by Rule 477(a).

Following the filing of this letter, the Company will re-file the Registration Statement Amendment with the proper EDGAR tag (POS AM) and a proper cover page indicating that the Registration Statement Amendment is a Post-Effective Amendment to Registration Statement.
