Deep eutectic solvents and applications in electrochemical sensing

This review focusses on deep eutectic solvents (DES) and their applications in the construction of electrochemical sensing platforms. The preparation and properties of DES are first described, with a brief survey of their applications, focusing on recent advances concerning materials and coatings prepared in DES as solvent. Their importance in the preparation of electrochemical sensors is then addressed in more detail, particularly regarding electroactive conjugated polymer and redox polymer modified electrodes. Future perspectives in the electrochemical sensing and biosensing fields are discussed.
