	Dimethyl sulfoxide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		DMSO can be reacted with methyl iodide to form a sulfoxonium ion which can be reacted with sodium hydride to form a sulfur ylide.
		DMSO is also employed as a rinsing agent in the electronics industry and, in its deuterated form (DMSO-d6), is a useful solvent in NMR due to its ability to dissolve a wide range of chemical compounds and its minimal interference with the sample signals.
		In the medical field DMSO is predominantly used as a topical analgesic, a vehicle for topical application of pharmaceuticals, as an anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant.

	DMSO
		DMSO, used extensively by arthritis sufferers, is an anti-inflammatory that has been shown clinically to relieve pain, increase circulation, repair tissue damage, stop the growth of bacteria and fungi, soothe burns, enlarge small blood vessels, soften scar tissue, and fight degenerative diseases.
		DMSO alleviates Rheumatoid Arthritis (by deactivating Hydroxyl Free Radicals which are one of the principal causes of the Inflammation and Pain associated with Rheumatoid Arthritis).
		DMSO (temporarily) causes Halitosis in the form of a garlic-like odor of the breath (this odor is very unpleasant and appears to be the major practical drawback in the usage of DMSO).

	DMSO and Down Syndrome
		Research with DMSO on humans was temporarily halted in 1965 after animals treated with DMSO were found to have developed changes in the lens of the eye.
		DMSO is also currently used as a cryopreservative for bone marrow cells and stem cells.
		In Down syndrome, the rationale given for using DMSO is as a carrier agent, in that it supposedly carries amino acids or other nutrients directly into the brain to affect cerebral metabolism.

	DMSO and MSM
		DMSO was originally created in the 1800's, but had little use until the 1940's, where it became popular as an industrial solvent.
		DMSO today is also found in paint thinners and antifreeze, and is NOT available in a preparation suitable for human use (except by prescription as above); it is only available in industrial form and is therefore impure.
		DMSO is only available in industrial grade solutions, and, given the paucity of data on it along with possible impurities, it should be avoided.

	DMSO, Eastern Carolina
		DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) is a colorless, slightly oily liquid that is primarily used as an industrial solvent.
		DMSO applied to the affected area appears to reduce pain by inhibiting transmission of pain messages by nerves and may also soften the abnormal connective tissue associated with disorders such as Dupuytren's contracture, keloids, Peyronie's disease, and scleroderma.
		DMSO is not an essential nutrient and it is not needed in the functions of a healthy body; therefore, deficiencies do not exist.

	Arthritis Today: MSM-DMSO
		DMSO (which stands for dimethyl sulfoxide) is a versatile compound with many uses and a checkered past.
		DMSO is the chemical used to protect human tissue (such as bone marrow, stem cells and embryos) when frozen for storage.
		DMSO also has a harmless but unpleasant side effect: Taken internally or even used externally, it causes a bad taste in the mouth and makes those who use it smell like garlic or oysters.

	BioMed Central \| Full text \| Dimethyl sulfoxide blocks herpes simplex virus-1 productive infection in vitro acting at ...
		DMSO is one of the most frequently used skin penetration agents for antiherpetic drugs and is generally used at a concentration of up to 95% [9].
		The cytotoxic effect of DMSO (Sigma or Fisher) treatment on Vero cells was evaluated by the method of sulforhodamin B (SRB) [22,23].
		Since the treatment with 4% DMSO for 8 hr caused practically the same extent of blockade as the treatment for 23 h (compare Figures 1, 3, and 4) and this treatment has no effect on cell toxicity, we more carefully analyzed the effect of DMSO treatment for 8 h (Figure 5).

	DMSO and MSM - The Biochemical Oxygen Transport Pair
		DMSO is a widely used commercial solvent derived from trees (living plants) as a byproduct from the production of paper.
		Once it is understood that DMSO (and MSM) acts as a profoundly effective oxygen transport system, this opens up the opportunity to use this information to treat a multitude of medical disorders, immediate and long term that are caused by a deficiency of oxygen transport.
		As one example, it has been reported that DMSO is greatly helpful in minimizing the damage from a traumatic brain injury due to a blow to the head or a stroke.

	DMSO (a.k.a. dimethylsulfoxide)
		DMSO, although it is not approved by the FDA for anything except an obscure bladder condition (interstitial cystitis), is widely used in sports medicine.
		Combine that with the fact that DMSO is as safe as it is effective (unlike large-dose steroid injections, which were once commonly used in professional sports) and its use becomes mandatory in professional sports medicine.
		Although DMSO is not known to cure cancer, it is true hydroxyl free radicals are present in cancer and in atherosclerosis.

	Quantifying the Effects of Dimethyl Sulphoxide (DMSO) on Protein Structure using Dual Polarisation I
		Because of its physicochemical properties, high solvent power, low chemical reactivity and relatively low toxicity, DMSO has become the solvent of choice for sample storage and handling in the pharmaceutical industry, particularly in the initial stages of high-throughput screening where storage of candidate molecules in DMSO is routine.
		DMSO was prepared as a co-solvent in PBS (10mM phosphate, 150mM NaCl, pH7.4) at 1%, 2%, 5%, 10% and 20% (v/v) and then flowed over the untreated chip at 50μl/min.
		In neat DMSO the structure of lysozyme is known to approach a random coil with complete lack of tertiary structure (3), a process that appears to be initiated in the lysozyme well before 100% DMSO, arguably at concentrations used in this study.

	Dr. Jacob's® MSM-DMSO (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-21)
		Dimethyl Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was first synthesized in 1866, has been available as a by-product of the paper pulp industry for many years, and is now used chiefly as an industrial solvent.
		DMSO is bacteriostatic in 20 percent concentration against E. coli, Staphylococcus aurerus, and Pseudomonas.
		Another difference between the two compounds is that DMSO is a proven and powerful free-radical scavenger, that is, an antioxidant, whereas MSM's is not a free radical scavenger.

	DMSO: Many Uses, Much Controversy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-21)
		Laboratory studies suggest that DMSO cuts pain by blocking peripheral nerve C fibers.3 Several clinical trials have demonstrated its effectiveness,4,5 although in one trial, no benefit was found.6 Burns, cuts, and sprains have been treated with DMSO.
		DMSO also stabilized blood pressure, improved respiration, and increased urine output by five times and increased blood flow through the spinal cord to areas of injury.15-17 Since then, DMSO has been employed with human patients suffering severe head trauma, initially those whose intracranial pressure remained high despite the administration of mannitol, steroids, and barbiturates.
		In one study with rats, DMSO was found to delay the spread of one cancer and prolong survival rates with another.22 In other studies, it has been found to protect noncancer cells while potentiating the chemotherapeutic agent.

	DMSO
		The evidence presented here suggests that DMSO stabilizes ice-like water clusters, and that it may therefore be capable of displacing the equilibrium between the less and more highly structured water, in favor of the latter.
		Since the hydration of cell constituents and the activity of water in general are not necessarily the same in the different states of water, it follows that DMSO may exert an indirect effect on biological systems by virtue of the changes that it causes in the liquid structure of water.
