DMSO.
Organic Solvent with various Properties.
DMSO is short for dimethyl sulfoxide, an organic sulfur compound with a wide range of different features.
DMSO is a low-viscosity, high-boiling liquid (boiling point 189 °C, 372 °F) and an extremely versatile solvent, which has a characteristic odor and freezes at a temperature of +18 °C (64.4 °F) into the crystalline, solid state. Therefore, on colder outdoor temperatures DMSO remains in the frozen state - that's why DMSO mostly comes as a frozen substance when shipped during the cold months. By heating the appropriate bottle in a water bath or storing it next to a radiator, DMSO quickly becomes liquid again and can the be used.
History and recent uses of DMSO
Dimethyl sulfoxide has long been used as a versatile, polar solvent in organic syntheses as well as a transmitter substance (carrier substance, transport mediator) in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry. In the latter, DMSO is used not only in liquid form, but often also as a component of gels. In addition, DMSO prevents the formation of ice crystals in the frozen food (during a freezing process).
