Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO), cell culture reagent (CAS 67-68-5) | SC-358801

Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO), cell culture reagent is ideal for cryopreservation. DMSO is a polar, aprotic organic solvent with many applications in chemical and biological research. DMSO can uniquely provide solubility to certain very polar small molecules, such as simple biomolecules with multiple protic functional groups. It can also be used as an oxidation reagent in certain transformations. The yield of PCR processes is amplified with DMSO as a co-solvent, helping to inhibit the formation of secondary structures from DNA fragments.

Usage :

Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO), Cell Culture reagent is used in molecular biology, especially in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), cell lysis, in transformation and transfection and in cytofluorimetric assessment. DMSO is most often used at a concentration of 10%.
