Do you have a website? I am interested in reading everything you've got
available on the subject...

I noticed, a comment among the recent commentary on my earlier post on
some of
our cataract research mentioned the application of 100%, undiluted
DMSO. While we have never encountered any case where the
external....or internal....use of undiluted DMSO has resulted in ANY
measurable degree of tissue compromise----there ARE circumstances
where the result of such application has a PRONOUNCED rush of marked
discomfort. The burning sensation resulting from such protocols is,
sometimes, called "false blister", as it feels almost identical to a
pronounced sunburn. A majority of all such incidents (among those we
have encountered) result from a single cause.....which is the
immediate rush of DMSO responding to its powerful hygroscopic
character. The actual effect of introducing pure/undiluted DMSO will
vary---sometimes, remarkably so----
based upon the fact that the actual volume/availability of moisture
existing in the eye socket at the time of application varies widely
among persons.....many times as much as 50%. Such conditions set the
stage for a most uncomfortable reaction.....at the precise moment of
introducing the DMSO to the eye surface/socket environment. The less
the volume of existing moisture/tears present at this moment.....the
more pronounced the potential discomfort to the recipient. I repeat
myself from earlier cautions: DMSO is EXTREMELY hygroscopic, to the
extent that in some cases, if inadvertently having water poured into
the vessel containing the parent, undiluted, DMSO....The reaction is
so violent that liquid material will be ejected in the form of large
bubbles/mist----together with the generation of pronounced heat. Even
when mixed properly with other liquids containing water
fractions....DMSO ALWAYS causes a reaction which liberates heat.
We have failed to encounter many circumstance where solutions
containing DMSO, require strengths beyond 20%....and in most cases,
not beyond 10%. Exceptions include normal, external, non-abraded, skin
tissues.
I do not mean to "gild-the-lily" with these comments, but do feel they
are worth ones consideration. Especially in view of the fact we have
such a wide disparity in technical/biological and chemical knowledge
among the list membership.
I consider ALL members to be intelligent.....but not equally informed.
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.
