Fatty acid/alcohol-based hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been considered to be eco-friendly alternatives to replace conventional hydrophobic organic solvents (i.e., halogenated solvents). These novel eco-friendly solvents are applied in the extraction and determination of two antibiotics (levofloxacin, LOF; ciprofloxacin
