[NHCOLL-L:3096] Re: DMSO

[Randy Mercurio]

I am  not sure if these names are listed with the BoA, however, on an 
MSDS the synonyms for DMSO are Methyl sulfoxide, Sulfinylbis[Methane] 
which I obtained from: 
http://www.jtbaker.com/msds/englishhtml/d7120.htm and as follows: 
Synonyms: dimethyl sulphoxide, dimethyl sulfoxide, DMSO, 
methylsulfinylmethane, A 10846, deltan, demeso, demasorb, demavet, 
demsodrox, dermasorb, dimexide, DMS-70, DMS-90, hyadur, infiltrina, 
somipront, SQ 9453, syntexan, topsym, numerous other trade names..... 
this is from: http://physchem.ox.ac.uk/MSDS/ME/methyl_sulfoxide.html

I can't seem to find the obvious chemical names in the 2004 IATA, 
45th edition, book. ~ Randy
