Q: Why is my DMSO crystalised?
DMSO is a very temperature sensitive product. Liquid DMSO can and will crystallise around 18 degrees, which does not affect it btw. often DMSO is delivered in this state, If this occurs, place or keep the DMSO bottle in a warm location 20°C+, and within a few hours it should go back to liquid form. For faster results, place the bottle in a clean zip lock bag, seal it, and place it in warm water.
Under any circumstances, do not microwave it!
is your DMSO packaged in?
A. All of our DMSO is packaged in Recyclable Glass Bottles, or Glass Jars. While it is more expensive to package in glass than plastic, many customers prefer glass packaging, as the glass cannot taint the DMSO. Glass is also more environmentally friendly than plastic.
Q. My DMSO arrived frozen. How do I safely thaw it out?
A. Very pure DMSO that is undiluted with water freezes at temperatures below 17.8 deg C. It is common in winter time for the DMSO to freeze during transport. In fact because of our warehouse location in Mount Barker Springs Adelaide Hills, this product sits on our shelf ready for order packing in a frozen state, see here
Please follow these instructions to thaw your DMSO quickly -
- Place Container of DMSO in Hot (NOT boiling) tap water.
- To avoid ruining the label place in a zip bag so no water touches it
- Do not heat the DMSO above 44 deg C.
- After a few hours You will start to see the DMSO turn back into a liquid.
- DO NOT MICROWAVE THE DMSO CONTAINER!
- An alternative method, if you are in no hurry. is just to store the bottle at a temperature above 20 deg C, & it will eventually thaw on its own (this method can take several days).
- To prevent your DMSO from re-freezing, store in a warm place away from direct sunlight. The addition of a small amount of distilled or demineralised water will also lower the freezing point.
