Ultrasound and deep eutectic supramolecular polymers (DESP) is a novel combination of green extraction method for phytochemicals. In this study, a new type of green extractant was developed: DESP. It is a derivative of deep eutectic solvent (DES) and was prepared by supramolecular polymer unit β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) as hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and organic acid as hydrogen bond donor (HBD). The current work focuses on the use of ultrasonic-assisted (UAE) DESP extraction of polyphenolic compounds (PCs) from bayberry. The experimental results showed that DESP synthesized with β-CD and lactic acid (LA) in a ratio of 1:1 (w/w %) had the best extraction effect. And by using a three-level factor experiment and the response surface method, the predicted TPC content is very close to the actual content (28.85 ± 1.27 mg GAE/g). The DESP extract including PCs were further used as plasticizer for chitosan (CS) to prepare highly active green biofilms (DESP-CS). It is possible to reduce the tedious procedures for separating biologically active substances from DESP. The experiment proved that the prepared films have good mechanical properties, plastic deformation resistance, thermal stability and antioxidant activity.

Cyclodextrins are widely used pharmaceutical excipients known to increase the solubility of drug compounds through formation of inclusion complexes. A prominent limitation of common cyclodextrins is their own scarce solubility in water, which renders them unsuitable for many drug formulations. Cyclodextrin solubility can be enhanced in appropriate media such as Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs).

A new analytical method was developed for the determination of 14 multiclass emerging organic contaminants in surface waters using LC-MS, and Dispersive Liquid-Liquid Microextraction (DLLME) for extraction. Different Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADESs) composed of terpenes and organic acids were tested as extraction solvents and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Hydrogen Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (H-NMR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), density, and viscosity, eliminating the need to use traditional chlorinated solvents. NADES produced with butyric acid and thymol showed the best results and was selected for application for the first time in the extraction of emerging organic contaminants of different classes in water samples.

Hypertension affects 32% of adults worldwide, leading to a significant global consumption of cardiovascular medications. Atenolol, a β-adrenergic receptor blocker, is widely prescribed for cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, angina pectoris, and myocardial infarction. According to the Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS), atenolol belongs to Class III, characterized by high solubility but low permeability.
