When the seller says 99.7 pure it is not clear exactly what they are talking about.
However, I remember when I was looking into it that it was indicated that the normal impurities in DMSO were water soluble. Pure DMSO has a high freezing point, above that of water, so it can be frozen in a refrigerator while the water portion will still remain liquid. So, do this and pour out the water and the water soluble impurities with it. Crystallized substances are often very pure. I did this to one batch once, and I could not get it to become liquid again until I added some distilled water to it. I believe you could add a small amount of distilled water to the remaining DMSO and shake it up and repeat the process, thereby "washing" it and removing even more of the impurities. If you do this, don't add too much water, maybe 3 to 5%, you would have to experiment. The fact is, if you consider the stinky stuff in DMSO to be an impurity, it can be removed in this manner. The stinky stuff is in the liquid poured off, and the resultant DMSO is less smelly, in fact I don't get the garlic taste when I put it on topically after purifying it this way. Using the poured off liquid topically gives one very smelly breath, etc. I figured this out logically from reading about the properties of DMSO. I proved it experimentally by doing it. Others have repeated and confirmed the process and results. You may also try it, without charge...
