Product Information

• Name: Dichlorodifluoromethane mixed with 1,1-difluoroethane
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Dichlorodifluoromethane mixed with 1,1-difluoroethane is an organosilicon compound that is used as a refrigerant and in the manufacture of silicon metal. It has been shown to be reactive with metal hydroxides and can be used to reduce metal oxides to the corresponding metals. Dichlorodifluoromethane mixed with 1,1-difluoroethane has been used for the treatment of cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. The introduction of this gas into cancer cells leads to DNA damage, which may lead to cell death or inhibition of cellular proliferation. Dichlorodifluoromethane mixed with 1,1-difluoroethane also reacts with cyanide ions, forming hydrocarbon products that are less toxic than the original cyanides. This reactivity may also lead to the reduction of other metals such as mercury or silver salts.
