I finally received my 99% DMSO and when I opened the bottle, the neck of the bottle was full of crystals. Shouldn't these be dissolved already? I can hear liquid in the bottle, should I strain it? I thought this was going to be all liquidy so I'm confused.

DMSO freezes at about 64 degrees F. No worry, let it warm up at room temp. No need to keep it in a fridge.

Thank you very much! I didn't expect this. I've been shaking it for a half hour and it still has crystals. Now I have it closer to the heat so hopefully they will melt. It came UPS so I guess the trucks are cold. What about the citric acid? I just heard today that it should be refrigerated but I haven't been and now I'm concerned.

Recently I ordered a bottle of DMSO and it took a whole day to thaw out at room temp. I live in a cold climate.

When I used to use citric acid for activator, I never kept it in a fridge. I guess you could do that, but warm it up before using it because being cold will slow down activation. Never heard it needs to be kept in a fridge.
