Effect of Extenders Including High Concentrations Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) on Post-Thaw Rabbit Sperm Parameters

Revisiting optical clearing with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).

Functional optical characterization of disease progression and response to therapy suffers from loss of spatial resolution and imaging depth due to scattering. Here we report on the ability of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) alone to reduce the optical scattering of skin. We observed a threefold reduction in the scattering of skin with topical DMSO application. With an in vivo window chamber model, w...

The effect of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on the growth of dermatophytes.

Dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) is frequently used as a solvent for antifungal drugs in various studies to determine their MICs. Reports on comparative evaluation of methods for the susceptibility testing of antifungal drugs have shown there is poor agreement among methods. Besides other factors which could cause variability in the results, one important factor might be the effect of DMSO on the growt...

Effect of High Light Level on Sperm parameters in Mice

Background and aims: High light level of natural or artificial sources in some workplaces may be considered as a hazardous physical agent. The present study aimed to assess the effect of light level of 1000 lux on sperm parameters  in mice.   Methods: The subjects were assessed in two group including 1. Exposed (n= 6; exposed to light level of 1000 lux during 5 eight-hour days), 2. Unexposed ...
