dimethyl sulfoxide and Dementias, Transmissible

dimethyl sulfoxide has been researched along with Dementias, Transmissible in 4 studies

Dimethyl Sulfoxide: A highly polar organic liquid, that is used widely as a chemical solvent. Because of its ability to penetrate biological membranes, it is used as a vehicle for topical application of pharmaceuticals. It is also used to protect tissue during CRYOPRESERVATION. Dimethyl sulfoxide shows a range of pharmacological activity including analgesia and anti-inflammation.
dimethyl sulfoxide : A 2-carbon sulfoxide in which the sulfur atom has two methyl substituents.
