TL;DR: Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) as discussed by the authors are a class of solvents that can be defined as a mixture of two or more components, which at a particular composition present a high melting point depression becoming liquids at room temperature.

TL;DR: In this article, the properties of natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) have been investigated at the molecular level, including their properties such as density, thermal behavior, conductivity and polarity.

TL;DR: In this article, the preparation of natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) from cheap and readily available raw materials is reported, where mixtures of choline chloride (CC) or betaine (Bet) with 3 sugar molecules (glucose (Glu), xylose (Xyl) and sucrose (Suc)) and 2 carboxylic acids (citric (CA) and tartaric (Tart) acids).

TL;DR: The results show that all the THEDESs retain the antibacterial activity of the API, highlighting the great potential of THEDes as dissolution enhancers in the development of novel and more effective drug delivery systems.

TL;DR: A therapeutic DES based on ibuprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and menthol was synthesized and its thermal behavior was analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), providing important clues for the development of carriers for the sustainable delivery of bioactive compounds.
