A series of novel L-lactic acid-based deep eutectic solvents (DES) were tested for polyphenol extraction performance, using organically grown, native Greek medicinal plants. The extractions were ultrasonically-assisted and the effect of the addition of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) as extraction booster was also tested, at a concentration of 1.5% (w/v). The estimation of total polyphenol yield (Y-TP) suggested that DES composed of L-lactic acid and nicotinamide and L-lactic acid and L-alanine, both at a molar ratio of 7:1, are promising solvents giving significantly higher yields compared with 60% (v/v) aqueous ethanol and water. However, when beta-CD was combined with DES comprised of L-lactic acid and ammonium acetate (molar ratio 7:1), the extraction yields obtained in some instances were equal of even higher. The pattern was not consistent when the yield in total flavonoids (Y-TFn) was considered, indicating water, 60% (v/v) aqueous ethanol and L-lactic acid: sodium acetate (molar ratio 7:1) to be the most efficient solvents. In this case, the effect of beta-CD was of rather lower magnitude. The examination of the antioxidant activity of the extracts generated showed that there is a close correlation mainly with their concentration in total polyphenols.
