[RASMB] DMSO

[John Philo]

Norbert,
 
I'm pretty sure 0.5% DMSO is no problem with Epon, but the person who would
know for certain is Natalia Markova at Biovitrum in Switzerland. She looks
at small molecules that come out of drug screens and their binding to
proteins and I believe she has extensively studied various issues regarding
DMSO and its effects on proteins. Since she hasn't yet responded I suspect
she is not on the RASMB though so I will respond to you privately with her
contact information.
 
John

Dear RASMBs,
we do have a solution with 0.5% DMSO.
Is this a problem with standard Epon chacoal-filled cells?
In the manual from Beckman it is written that DMSO interact with these
cells.

Will it be a problem in the Aluminium cells? Or with the gaskets? Or housing
plugs?
We do have this problem now and a fast answer would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance
Norbert
