Abstract

The photophysics of natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) remains unexplored. Here, we report that a class of NADESs aggregates in water, enabling through-space interaction as evidenced by an unusual emission and redshifted UV absorption band. The NADESs enhanced fluorescence excitation and emission of fluorogenic proteins for improved bioimaging.
