Approximately half of the world’s pineapple production is marketed as a processed product, leading to generation significant quantity industrial waste, mainly composed peels, cores, and crowns. This study evaluated deep eutectic solvents (DESs) for assisted microwave extraction phenolic compounds from peels their antioxidant capacity. DESs are considered environmentally friendly characterized b...

Cobalt and manganese were selectively leached from LiNMC using an oxalic acid : choline chloride deep eutectic solvent, resulting in a nickel-enriched solid residue.

In this article a strategy is proposed for the design of low toxic, room temperature liquid low-melting mixtures (LMMs) which are entirely composed of natural materials. From literature it is well known that, in general, deep eutectic solvents based on choline chloride and dicarboxylic acids are LMMs, but not liquids at room temperature, with one exception: a 1 : 1 molar mixture of malonic acid...

The ionothermal synthesis of Ca-MOFs has been performed using the 1 : 2 choline chloride e-urea deep eutectic solvent, allowing preparation water sensitive materials.

This study investigated whether dietary choline can prevent endotoxin shock. Female Sprague-Dawley rats fed chow or chow plus choline chloride (0.025-0.4%) for 3 days were given lipopolysaccharide (LPS) via the tail vein. Eighty-three percent and 56% of chow-fed rats survived after 2.5 or 5.0 mg/kg LPS, respectively. Choline increased survival in a dose-dependent manner, with maximal effects ob...

The synthesis of furanic derivatives (5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), furfural . . . ) from carbohydrates is of high interest for a wide range of applications. These reactions are carried out in the presence of various solvents, and among them choline chloride can be used. It is a salt that can form a low melting mixture with a carbohydrate (fructose, glucose . . . ) or a deep eutectic mixture w...

2-Amino-2-methylpropanol-1 and LY ,a-dimethyltriethylcholine have been found to be competitive inhibitors of choline utilization in 40 to 50 gm. male albino rats (1). The former substance apparently only antagonized the utilization of choline in the kidney’ while the latter was an antimetabelite both in the liver and kidney. The quantitative relationships between these inhibitors and choline in...
