Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are currently being used in different sectors, such as electrochemistry, electrodeposition, organic synthesis, nanoparticle preparation, bioactive compound separation, etc. Their use in analytical chemistry has only recently begun to expand. Despite the publication of a sufficient number of DES-based analytical extraction procedures, some details, such as interaction of DESwith the sample and target analytes aswell as withwater are insufficiently explored and theoretically explained.Herewe discuss the role ofwater in DES-based extraction in terms of analytical chemistry, especially for the pre-treatment of solid samples.We believe that this reviewwill benefit those who have linked their researchwith DESs andwill enable themto speed up theirwork.
