- DORC uses a proprietary two-step purification process to reduce LMWC presence to levels lower than most competitors1
- DORC silicone oils contain the lowest recorded levels of the potentially harmful M 1000g/mol compounds1
- DORC provides a certificate of analysis for every batch of silicone oil– many competitors fail to provide this critical analysis document

The D.O.R.C. Silicone oil is a purified silicone oil which allows for a maximum interfacial tension and minimizes interactions between tissues, cells and endo-tamponades media. The physical properties include a combination of s pecific density, refractive index and surface tension. The choice of viscosity offers an optimum balance between easy injection and a stable temporary tamponade.
