Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was first prepared by Alexander Saylzeff in 1866 and is now obtained from waste product in paper manufacture. Though primarily used as an unusual solvent, the chance discovery of its skin penetrability triggered off series of investigations about the clinical usefulness of the agent and its various biological actions (1). In light of the forementioned work, it was considered worthwhile to investigate the action of DMSO on Finkleman preparation of rabbit ileum.
