Abstract
En 中文
Traditional cereal processing faces persistent challenges regarding the environmental burden of conventional extraction solvents and the vulnerability of grain matrices to hazardous contaminant accumulation. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged as promising alternative extraction media for extracting bioactive compounds from natural resources. Their unique hydrogen-bonding networks and tunable physicochemical properties enable efficient extraction of target analytes from complex cereal matrices while facilitating sensitive detection of processing-induced contaminants. Representative results include delignification rates reaching 94.8% with ChCl–lactic acid DES, oat protein content of 55.72% obtained using aqueous ChCl–1,4-butanediol systems, and up to 2.3-fold enhancement in total phenolic recovery compared with conventional 80% methanol extraction. For contaminant detection, DES-based methods achieve limits as low as 0.01 μg/kg for aflatoxins and 2 μg/kg for zearalenone. This review traces the evolution of DES applications, elucidates the physicochemical mechanisms governing analyte extraction and contaminant detection from cereal matrices, and summarizes recent advances in food safety assurance.
