Abstract The demand for more effective, precise, and ecologically friendly ways to identify and measure different components within food matrices has driven ongoing changes in the field of food analysis. Efficient utilization of magnetic deep eutectic solvents (MDES) and DES-functionalized nanomaterials in food analysis holds significant potential in achieving optimal extraction efficiency, selectivity, and sensitivity for the extraction and detection of target food analytes. This review presents a comprehensive discussion of the structure, synthesis, and unique physicochemical properties of MDES and DES-functionalized nanomaterials as probable alternatives to toxic solvents used in the current food analysis practices. The MDES and functionalized nanomaterials find application in the determination of organic and inorganic contaminants, drugs, proteins, and other substances in environmental, food, and biological matrices. They are used as sorbents or solvents in extraction techniques, with high efficiency and analyte selectivity. The advancements in analytical extraction methods using MDES and DESfunctionalized nanomaterials are briefly discussed, with a focus on the latest reported studies. The molecular interactions involved are mainly due to the functionalization capacity of DES through the enhancement of the functional groups on the nanomaterial surface while maintaining structure integrity. Moreover, the environmental impacts, advantages, and disadvantages of MDES and DES-functionalized nanomaterials applied in food analysis are also summarized to highlight the loopholes for future development and improvements.
