Abstract: A choline chloride + lactic acid (1:1) natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) is used as an adjuvant to ethanol/triacetin mixtures to solubilize and extract curcumin from Curcuma Longa. The obtained NADES/ethanol/triacetin mixtures are homogeneous, transparent and of… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Surfactant-free microemulsions (SFME) comprising a cleavable hydrotrope/hydrophobic component were investigated regarding potential applications for green, microemulsion-mediated extraction processes. To this purpose, dynamic light scattering (DLS) experiments were performed for ternary systems consisting of water/(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methanol… read more here.
