Key Applications
This HPLC-grade DMSO finds applications in various laboratory settings:
- Chromatographic analysis where solvent purity is critical
- Sample dissolution for spectroscopic studies
- Cell culture cryopreservation in biological research
- Reaction medium in organic synthesis
- Solvent for pharmaceutical compound analysis
Why HPLC Grade Matters
Unlike technical or reagent-grade DMSO, HPLC-grade DMSO undergoes additional purification steps to remove impurities that could affect chromatographic results. This includes:
- Reduced UV-absorbing contaminants
- Lower particle content
- Strict control of residual solvents
- Consistent batch-to-batch performance
For researchers working with sensitive analytical techniques, using HPLC-grade solvents like this DMSO can significantly improve the accuracy and reproducibility of your results.
Safety and Handling
While DMSO is generally safe when handled properly, it’s important to follow standard laboratory safety practices:
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, goggles)
- Use in a well-ventilated area or fume hood
- Avoid skin contact as DMSO can carry other substances through the skin
- Store in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials

Compatibility and Storage
This DMSO is compatible with most laboratory glassware and HPLC systems. For optimal performance:
- Store at room temperature (15-30°C)
- Keep container tightly closed when not in use
- Avoid prolonged exposure to air to prevent moisture absorption
- Check for any precipitation before use in critical applications
Common Questions About DMSO
Many researchers have questions about using DMSO in their work. Here are some points to consider:
- The odor of DMSO is normal and doesn’t indicate contamination
- It can be used as a cryoprotectant for cell lines at concentrations of 5-10%
- For HPLC applications, always use HPLC-grade rather than reagent-grade
- DMSO can affect some plasticware, so glass containers are preferred for storage

FAQs
What is the difference between HPLC grade and reagent grade DMSO?
HPLC grade DMSO undergoes additional purification to remove UV-absorbing impurities and particles that could interfere with chromatographic analysis. Reagent grade is suitable for general lab use but may contain contaminants that affect sensitive analytical techniques.
Can I use this DMSO for cell culture applications?
Yes, this HPLC-grade DMSO is suitable for cell culture cryopreservation. However, for direct cell culture applications, you might want to consider cell culture-tested grades specifically designed for that purpose.
How should I dispose of unused DMSO?
Follow your institution’s chemical waste disposal protocols. DMSO should be collected in appropriate solvent waste containers and disposed of through licensed chemical waste handlers.
What’s the shelf life of this DMSO?
When stored properly in its original container at room temperature, this DMSO typically has a shelf life of 2-3 years. Always check for any changes in appearance before use.
Can I buy smaller quantities of HPLC-grade DMSO?
Currently, we offer this Qualigens DMSO in 1L packaging. For smaller quantities, you might consider our other solvent options or contact our customer service for special requests.
