Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a colorless, odorless, hygroscopic liquid that is highly polar and miscible with both water and a wide range of organic solvents. It is known for its exceptional ability to dissolve both polar and non-polar compounds, making it a versatile solvent in various applications.

DMSO is widely used as a solvent in chemical synthesis, analytical chemistry, and industrial processes. It plays a key role in the production of fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals (in industrial contexts), and agrochemicals. In laboratory research, DMSO is frequently employed as a cryoprotectant for preserving biological samples and as a carrier solvent in various reactions.

In the polymer industry, DMSO is utilized as a solvent for spinning and processing certain types of polymers. It is also used in the production of electronics, coatings, and adhesives due to its excellent solvating properties.

SAFETY

While DMSO is relatively low in toxicity, it has a unique property of rapidly penetrating the skin and carrying dissolved substances into the bloodstream. As such, care must be taken to avoid contact with potentially harmful chemicals dissolved in DMSO. Proper handling involves wearing gloves, goggles, and working in a well-ventilated area. It should be stored in a tightly sealed container, away from strong oxidizers, in a cool and dry environment.
