Effective and Selective Extraction of Quercetin from Onion (Allium cepa L.) Skin Waste Using Water Dilutions of Acid-Based Deep Eutectic Solvents

Abstract: Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) are experiencing growing interest as substitutes of polluting organic solvents for their low or absent toxicity and volatility. Moreover, they can be formed with natural bioavailable and biodegradable molecules; they are synthesized in absence of hazardous solvents. DESs are, inter alia, successfully used for the extraction/preconcentration of biofunctional molecules from complex vegetal matrices. Onion skin is a highly abundant waste material which represents a reservoir of molec… Show more

“…Glycolic acid and trimethylglycine molecules can form a DES when mixed together in 2/1 GA/TMG molar ratio, and this DES has found fruitful applications in chemical transformations, in extraction procedures, in membranes realization [40,[51][52][53][54][55][56][57]. In particular, in the extraction of quercetin from onion skin waste, its 30% w/w water dilution was the best-performing in a screening on various DESs, underlining the water affinity of this solvent [61].…”

“…Various analytical techniques have been developed for the estimation of these compounds, either individually or in combination, from different sources. For instance, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and UFLC methods have been established for the estimation of Quercetin [16][17][18][19][20][21][22], whereas HPLC and HPTLC techniques have been used for the estimation of Berberine [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34], alone or in combination. Similarly, HPLC methods have been utilized for the quantification of Phytosterols [35][36][37][38][39].…”
