"Only"? Distilled water may be particularly disastrous intravenously, but any living cell, placed in distilled water will swell and lyse. While mostly water, cells have too many solutes inside to withstand that osmosis. Now, this doesn't mean a DMSO/water solution without the salinity is dangerous. I just think the concern is reasonable. Surely someone has experience and experiment here.

The legal definition of distilled doesn't require distillation.
