A novel ferrofluid prepared from a hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (DES) and Fe 3 O 4 @graphite composite materials was introduced as a green microextraction medium for the separation and enrichment of trace estrogens in real samples. It was found that the ferrofluid greatly improved the capacity and selectivity of target analytes, benefiting from the enrichment of both DES and Fe 3 O 4 @graphite composite materials. Using a combination of high-performance liquid chromatography–fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) and vortex-assisted liquid–liquid microextraction (VALLME), a new method was established for simultaneous rapid processing and accurate determination of three estrogens (estradiol [E2], estriol [E3], and ethinyl estradiol [EE2]) in environmental water and urine samples. Key parameters affecting the extraction efficiency were optimized using a single-factor approach and response surface methodology. Under optimal conditions, this method yielded a low limit of detection (1.01 ng L −1 , 3.03 ng L −1 , and 25.0 ng L −1 for EE2, E2, and E3, respectively), wide linear range (3–200,000 ng L −1 ), high enrichment factors (9.81–47.2), and satisfactory recovery (73.8–129.0%). Compared with traditional analytical techniques, this method avoids the use of volatile toxic organic extraction solvents and cumbersome phase separation operations. Graphical abstract

As a kind of green tea with unique multiple baking processes, the flavor code of Lu’an Guapian (LAGP) has recently been revealed. To improve and stabilize the quality of LAGP, further insight into the dynamic changes in odorants during the whole processing is required. In this study, 50 odorants were identified in processing tea leaves, 14 of which were selected for absolute quantification to profile the effect of processes. The results showed that spreading is crucial for key aroma generation and accumulation, while these odorants undergo significant changes at the deep baking stage. By adjusting the conditions of the spreading and deep baking, it was found that low-temperature (4 °C) spreading for 6 h and low-temperature with long-time baking (final leaf temperature: 102 °C, 45 min) could improve the overall aroma quality. These results provide a new direction for enhancing the quality of LAGP green tea.

To deepen the understanding of peach aroma, we investigated the changes of volatile organic compound (VOC) profiles during fruit development in three fresh peach cultivars: ‘Jiucui (JC)’, ‘Zhongyoupan No. 9 (ZYP9)’ and ‘Zhongyou No. 8 (ZY8)’. The classes and contents of VOCs changed significantly during fruit ripening. The representative VOC changes were categorized into three developmental stages, with the lowest volatile content observed during the middle stage. At maturity, ester-related volatiles increased significantly, dominating the VOC profiles and accounting for 78 %, 82 % and 88 % in JC, ZYP9 and ZY8, respectively, while alcohols decreased dramatically. Multivariate analysis identified 23, 21 and 20 potential volatile markers in JC, ZYP9 and ZY8, respectively, with 9 shared markers distinguishing the different developmental stages. Odor activity values (OAVs) and olfactometry analysis highlighted 36, 29, and 26 aroma-active compounds (OAV > 1) across the cultivars, with key contributors to the mature peach aroma including hexyl acetate (OAV 860–2896), ( E )-2-hexenyl acetate, ( Z )-3-hexenyl acetate, ( E )-3-hexenyl acetate, linalool, and γ -decalactone. The fruity aroma intensified as ripening progressed, with ZY8, a cultivar with a longer maturation cycle, exhibiting the highest odor intensity. This study offers insights into the dynamic changes in VOC profiles during peach development, highlighting key aroma-active compounds and their stage-specific variations.

Cu-based perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have received great interest as alternatives to lead-based perovskite NCs due to their unique advantages of resource abundance and being environmentally friendly. However, the issue of their inherent low luminous efficiency has limited the application of fluorescence sensing fields. In this work, a highly sensitive fluorescence sensor based on Cu-based perovskite NCs has been constructed by embedding Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 NCs in room temperature curable deep eutectic solvents (Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 -DES) for the detection of NH 3 gas in the atmosphere. In this strategy, Lauric acid-based DES with room temperature curable property were successfully synthesized and used as the supporting materials of Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 -DES sensing film. When NH 3 gas exists, NH 3 can be adsorbed and enriched on the surface of Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 -DES film, and react with the carboxyl group on the DES, which leads to a significant decrease in the fluorescence intensity of Cs 3 Cu 2 I 5 -DES film. Under optimized experimental conditions, the as-prepared sensing film demonstrated a good linear relationship between the decreased intensity of the fluorescence and the NH 3 concentration, and a low limit-of-detection (LOD) of 0.0642 ppm for NH 3 . Furthermore, the sensor also exhibited excellent selectivity and good stability.

Processing is an indispensable technology in the preparation of Spirulina platensis ( S. platensis ). The key odorants in liquids, muds, and powders from S. platensis (NM and GZ) were characterized. A total of 90 odorants were identified and 41 odorants were sniffed with the flavor dilution (FD) factors ranging from 1 to 729. Among them, nonanal, decanal, d -limonene, β -cyclocitral, and β -ionone with FD factors ≥1 were detected in S. platensis during the whole processing stages. In addition, heptanal, ( E , E )-2,4-nonadienal, trans -4,5-epoxy-( E )-2-decenal, 1-hepten-3-one, isophorone, 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, and α -ionone exhibited higher odor activity values in powders; β -myrcene, methional, and S -methyl methanethiosulphonate were key odorants in muds; while trans -3-penten-2-ol was key odorant in liquids. Besides, the GZ-mud presented stronger earthy and fishy odor than NM - mud. S. platensis powders have the stronger grassy odor, roasted odor, and marine odor than S. platensis muds. Overall, drying process promotes the formation of aldehydes, heterocyclic compounds, and terpenoids.

The current large-scale use of organic and some toxic reagents hinders the development of plant secondary metabolite extraction and processing industry. Here, a biphasic temperature-responsive solvent system consisting of hydrophilic deep eutectic solvent (choline chloride: levulinic acid) and fatty acid-based hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent is developed. Some characteristics of this intelligent solvent system, including hundreds of synthesis ratios and corresponding switching temperatures, phase ratios, etc., have been comprehensively determined. Subsequently, it is applied to different plant matrices. The extraction efficiencies ranged from 1.006 to 6.807 times higher than those of conventional organic reagents, with separation efficiencies ranging from 60.7 % to 100 %, besides the fact that the hydrophilic components are almost entirely distributed in the lower phase. The recovery of targeted phytochemicals achieves satisfactory results during the simultaneous extraction and enrichment process. Mechanisms of switching, extraction, and enrichment have been elucidated to a certain extent from the point of view of chemical computational simulations. Overall, this new green solvent system is universal and can be applied to a wide range of phytochemicals extraction and separation from plants in a one-pot operating unit. Also, it is almost the greenest of the temperature-responsive solvents studied so far and has superior application prospects.

Four families of magic-sized ZnSe quantum dots (ZnSe MSQDs) with the first exciton absorption peaks at 280 nm (F280), 291 nm (F291), about 319 nm (F319), and 347 nm (F347) were synthesized using fatty amine−H2Se complex as selenium precursor via noninjection one-pot or hot-injection approaches. The formation, growth, and transformation of these families of ZnSe MSQDs were monitored mainly by ultraviolet−visible absorption spectroscopy. Relatively pure F291 and F347 were obtained via the combination of hot-injection technology with purification treatment and were further characterized using mass spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray powder diffraction. F291 and F347 are speculated to be [(Zn7Se7)(OLA)2(OA)] (OLA = oleylamine, OA = octylamine) and [(Zn16Se15)(OLA)7], respectively, by analyzing the corresponding mass and the infrared and absorption spectra; both emit narrow exciton fluorescence with relatively small stokes shift of 9 and 2 nm, respectively. Ultrafine ZnSe nanorods with a diameter of about 1.7 nm formed via oriented attachment of F347 were observed using transmission electron microscopy. Fatty amine−H2Se complex has been demonstrated to be a simple, phosphine-free, low-cost, and effective selenium precursor for the synthesis of ZnSe MSQDs or regular quantum dots (RQDs).

Water shortage is an imminent issue in the foreseeable future while thermal desalination techniques are energy intensive. This study investigates a membrane-less low temperature technique known as directional solvent extraction (DSE) desalination in a serpentine microchannel at 45, 50, 55, 60 and 65 °C. Two lower fatty acids, heptanoic acid (HeptA) and nonanoic acid (NonA) were used as the solvents to recover water from a 35000 ppm total dissolved solids (TDS) seawater at 2, 3, 4 and 5 organic to aqueous flowrate ratios (O: aq). Custom-made polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) – glass microfluidic device is fabricated via direct writing lithography with depth and length of 100 µm and 161 mm respectively while the width is varied from 400 - 800 µm. Droplets were generated during the extraction process to maximize diffusion by using a 90° T-junction where the organic solvent is the continuous phase and seawater is the dispersed phase. A maximum product water yield, Yw of 4 % v/v and 1.9 % v/v is achieved by HeptA and NonA respectively. The product water recovered from HeptA and NonA has salinity as low as 0.01% and 0.08%, respectively. The HeptA system produces water containing higher solvent residuals than the NonA system. HeptA is a better solvent as it can extract approximately two times more water than NonA under the same operating conditions. Both solvents are reusable.

In this study, hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDESs) based on trioctylmethylammonium chloride (TOMAC) and medium-chain fatty acids were investigated for the extraction of carboxylic acids. The effects of molar ratio, extraction temperature, vortex time, pH, and carboxylic acid concentration on the partition behavior of carboxylic acids were evaluated. The natural logarithm of partition coefficients (lnK) for six kinds of mono and five kinds of binary carboxylic acids in the TOMAC-OctA system exhibits an excellent linear relationship to the ClogP of carboxylic acids. Quantum chemical calculations using density functional theory showed that one hydrogen bond is formed between lactic acid (LA) and TOMAC-OctA, while double hydrogen bonds between succinic acid (SA) and TOMAC-OctA. However, extraction of butyric acid (BA) is driven by van der Waals force. Furthermore, analysis of the interaction energy revealed that TOMAC-OctA possesses the highest affinity for the extraction of BA, followed by SA and LA.

Osthole, a compound found in Cnidum monnieri (L.) Cuss has various pharmacological activities. Ultrasound-assisted extraction of osthole was conducted using natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) combined with switchable hydrophilicity solvents (SHSs), and the feasibility of repeated use of recycled extractants was evaluated. NADES (xylose-levulinic acid) was used as an extraction solvent for the green extraction of osthole from Cnidum monnieri (L.) Cuss. Osthole in NADES was finally enriched in heptanoic acid, and due to the heptanoic acid convertibility, osthole can be easily and rapidly isolated and recovered. By adjusting the pH to alkaline, hydrophobic heptanoic acid was switched into a hydrophilic solution to precipitate the osthole. The recovery of osthole was over 90 %, with a yield of 8.35 mg g –1 . After five reuses of recycled NADES to extract new Cnidum monnieri (L.) Cuss powder, the change in osthole yield was non-significant. This novel, eco-friendly, and sustainable extraction method offers a new idea for developing bioactive substances in medicinal plants.

In this work, a switchable deep eutectic solvent (SDES) based on fatty acid and polyetheramine ion pair was prepared for liquid-phase microextraction (LPME) of phenoxyacetic acid herbicides in drinking water, beverage and honey matrices. The as-synthesized SDES equipped with an interesting characteristic of fast and reversible polarity switching, achieving homogeneous extraction and rapid bi-phase separation simultaneously. Several key parameters affecting the extraction performance were investigated comprehensively by Box-Behnken design. Under the optimal conditions, the method exhibited excellent linearity (15–4000 μg L −1 ), low detection limits (3–5 μg L −1 ), desirable precision (RSD < 8.1 %), and satisfactory recovery (72.6–98.7 %). More importantly, the introduction of SDES can simplify the pre-treatment procedure, shorten extraction time (4 min), and avoid the usage of traditional organic solvent during the whole extraction process. In addition, the switching mechanism of SDES was characterized by FT-IR and 1 H NMR, and the forming mechanism of SDES was investigated using density-functional theory. The green of the method was estimated using the analytical ecological scale, the analytical green calculator, and the green analytical procedure index. The cytotoxicity of SDES was investigated and the result displayed that toxicity of the SDES was very low with the EC 50 > 500 mg/L. Therefore, the proposed method was green and efficient and revealed considerable application prospects for the extraction of trace analytes from complex materials.

The inherent merits of natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) have endowed them as a class of promising solvents in many applications. In this study, amino acid-based DESs are applied as absorbent for CO 2 capture. A systematic method combining solid–liquid equilibria (SLE) prediction, EHS-impacts (environmental, health, and safety) evaluation of the second components, and experimental validation is employed to rationally identify promising CO 2 absorbents. The melting point and fusion enthalpy of pure amino acid components are predicted by a recently proposed machine learning model, while COSMO-RS is used to predict the SLE of all possible combinations. Five key EHS-related properties of the second components are evaluated via the VEGA platform. From above, eight promising binary systems based on L-lysine and L-proline are screened from the initial pool of 2,500 combinations. The SLE, density, and viscosity are experimentally determined and the CO 2 absorption experiments are finally performed, identifying L-proline: nonanoic acid (1:4) as the most promising eutectic absorbent.
