The 60 per cent water solution of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used in the investigations. It was instilled into the conjunctival sac of an eye with experimental corneal ulceration. The dimethyl sulfoxide is inhibiting the formation of hydroxide radicals which cause a damage of the tissue in the course of inflammation. Clinical observations as well as histochemical and histopathological examinations showed that ulcerations treated by dimethyl sulfoxide healed faster than those from the control group and reactions to acid mucopolysaccharides++ returned more rapidly to normal values.

D005609 Free Radicals Highly reactive molecules with an unsatisfied electron valence pair. Free radicals are produced in both normal and pathological processes. Free radicals include reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). They are proven or suspected agents of tissue damage in a wide variety of circumstances including radiation, damage from environment chemicals, and aging. Natural and pharmacological prevention of free radical damage is being actively investigated. Free Radical
