We have found that 10% DMSO (by volume) solutions penetrate----quite
easily----ALL spore coverings against which tested. We HAVE NOT conducted any
evaluations against Anthrax spores themselves (as we do not bring infectious
organisms of this danger level into our facilities). However, we have tested a
number of "similar" spore structures. All have proven vulnerable
to solutions containing DMSO. Additionally, DMSO maintains the integrity of
its transport capabilities (including saponifiers)......in these circumstances.
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.
