We report on the rotational diffusion dynamics of three chromophores (disodium fluorescein, oxazine 725, and perylene) in a series of choline chloride-ethylene glycol (ChCl:EG) deep eutectic solvent (DES) systems. We observe behavior independent of DES bulk viscosity for the cationic and neutral probes and behavior that is consistent with stick-limit interactions for the modified Debye-Stokes-Einstein model for the anionic probe. This finding indicates that the anionic species is integral to the interactions between DES constituent species that are responsible for local organization, consistent with previous MD simulations that showed higher interaction energies associated with both the hydrogen bond donor (EG) and hydrogen bond acceptor (Ch) interactions with Cl in ChCl:EG mixtures. The reorientation data reported here also indicate a region around 15 mol % ChCl where the stoichiometric relationship between the species gives rise to changes in the details of intermolecular interactions.

This study aims to explore the effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment as a method very likely to result in reversible electroporation of Georgi underground organs, resulting in increased mass transfer and secondary metabolites leakage. PEF treatment with previously established empirically tailored parameters [E = 0.3 kV/cm (U = 3 kV, d = 10 cm), t = 50 µs, N = 33 f = 1 Hz] was applied 1-3 times to roots submerged in four different Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADES) media (1-choline chloride/xylose (1:2) + 30% water, 2-choline chloride/glucose (1:2) + 30% water, 3-choline chloride/ethylene glycol (1:2), and 4-tap water (EC = 0.

Despite ongoing challenges, achieving further breakthroughs in the development of gel polymer electrolytes with a wide temperature range, excellent liquid retention capability and enhanced anode compatibility in flexible zinc-air batteries (FZABs) remains a significant objective. This study presents a significant advancement in the development of choline chloride/ethylene glycol-polyvinyl alcohol (ChCl/EG-PVA) eutectogel electrolyte, tailored for high-performance operation across a wide temperature range. Systematic in-situ and ex-situ characterizations and theoretical simulations confirm the formation of robust hydrogen bonding and denser polymer cross-linked networks within the prepared eutectogel, leading to enhanced liquid retention ability (93.

This study focuses on the extraction of bioactive compounds from date seeds using five polyol-based deep eutectic solvents (P-DESs) in combination with hybrid green extraction techniques, specifically microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), homogenization-assisted extraction (HAE), and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE). The optimization of these extraction techniques was achieved using P-DESs showing the highest efficiency for extracting date seed bioactive compounds using response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD) approach. The optimized conditions from three green techniques were further applied in the form of hybrid green extraction techniques, involving six binary and three ternary methods, to assess the percentage increase in the extraction efficiency of date seed bioactive polyphenolics.

(1) Background: Discarded young fig fruits (DYFFs) result in a waste of resources, such as sparse fruits and residual fruits, and there has been no research on the relationship between phenolic compounds and biological activity in DYFFs (2) Methods: Different deep eutectic solvents (DESs) and 80% ethanol were used to prepare DYFF extracts, and polyphenol extraction efficiency and bioactivities in the DYFFs extracts were compared. (3) Results: More than 1700 phytochemicals were identified in DYFFs, and thirteen of these typical phenolic compounds were analyzed quantitatively; chlorogenic acid, rutin, luteolin 8-C-glucoside, and epicatechin are the main polyphenols in DYFFs, especially chlorogenic acid with 2720-7980 mg/kg. Ferulic acid, caffeic acid, epicatechin, (+)-catechin, luteolin 8-C-glucoside, rutin, hesperetin, and chlorogenic acid showed different degrees of correlation with in vitro antioxidant activity.
