Brief content Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are considered as a novel inexpensive and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional solvents. Besides their wide applications in different fields, the use of DESs in biocatalysis has gathered increasing interest. DESs have shown promising impact on modulating enzyme activity and stability. In the past decade DESs have been used as reaction media or co-solvents for a considerable number of enzyme-catalyzed reactions. However, the use of DESs as reaction media for enzymatic reactions is still in its infancy. In this study, the effect of DESs based on choline chloride, choline acetate and betaine on the activity of invertase has been investigated.
