Article Synopsis
  • - Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are eco-friendly, low-cost solvents distinguished by their biodegradability, non-volatility, and non-toxicity, attracting increasing research interest.
  • - A new ternary deep eutectic solvent (TDES) was developed using ethaline and glycine, with carboxylic acids added, and its properties were analyzed through techniques like FTIR and thermal stability assessments.
  • - The study found that adding carboxylic acids improved the physical properties of the DES, such as viscosity and density, while also reducing surface tension, indicating significant interactions and bonding within the solvent system.

A new salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) sample preparation method for the determination of the polar anti-diabetic biguanide drugs (metformin, buformin and phenformin) in blood plasma, urine and lake water samples were developed. The SALLE was performed by mixing samples (plasma (0.2mL), urine or lake water (1.
