and polar amino acids are capable of forming hydrogen bonds. Hydrophobic side chains interact with each other via weak van der Waals interactions. The vast majority of bonds formed by these side ...

Hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents have proven useful in extracting non-polar target compounds, though researchers have shown there is room for further development.
