The high molecular weight of chitin, as a biopolymer, challenges its extraction due to its
insolubility in the solvents. Also, chitosan, as the N-deacetylated form of chitin, can be …

Over the past decade, deep eutectic solvents (DES) have been widely studied and applied
in sample preparation techniques. Until recently, most of the synthesized DES were …

The degradation of pollutants by a non-radical pathway involving singlet oxygen (1 O 2) is
highly relevant in advanced oxidation processes. Photosensitizers, modified photocatalysts …

The paper presents novel nonionic and hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents which were
synthesized from natural compounds, ie, thymol,±camphor, decanoic and 10-undecylenic …

Industries in the agro‐food sector are the largest generators of waste in the world. Agro‐food
wastes and by products originate from the natural process of senescence, pretreatment …

With the introduction of the concept of green chemistry, eco-friendly extraction processes are
moving from an option to a must. Therefore, the discovery and development of new solvents …

This paper presents an application of silver nanoparticles impregnated by Deep Eutectic
Solvents (DES) as ultrasonication aided microextraction system for lead (II) determination in …

Several advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) including photocatalytic processes were
studied for effective treatment of complex model wastewater containing a wide variety of …

A new approach was developed for the simultaneous pre-concentration and determination
of Ni (II) and Zn (II) in food samples. This method is based on ultrasound-assisted liquid …

Ultrasound-assisted extraction is a common technique for the extraction of organic
contaminants from solid samples due to its ease of application to a variety of matrices and …
