Description
Broccoli's healthiest compounds are locked in its cells, and Ivona Karaula and co-authors dissolve them out with designer solvents in a 2024 study. Their solvents are natural deep eutectic mixtures, syrupy blends of betaine with sugars, glycerol, or malic acid, meant to replace harsher chemistry.
Software first predicted which blends would dissolve polyphenols and glucosinolates best. Five betaine blends went to the bench, and their extracts beat the standard ethanol extract on polyphenol content and antioxidant strength. One sugar blend led overall. The malic acid blend pulled out nearly six times the glucosinolates of ethanol. The compounds also kept better in the new solvents. Because the extracts need no purification, the authors pitch them as ready-to-use ingredients for foods and supplements.
