the effect of addition of qodumeh shahri (lepidium perfoliatum) seed gum on the emulsion properties were investigated in this study. l. perfoliatum seed gum with 0-0.6% (w/w) concentration was used together with 2% (w/w) wpc to emulsify 20% (w/w) corn oil. the emulsion was analyzed for emulsion stability, particle size, specific surface area, particle size distribution and rheological propertie...

BACKGROUND Nano-emulsions, as non-equilibrium systems, present characteristics and properties which depend not only on composition but also on their method of preparation. To obtain better penetration, nanocosmeceuticals use nano-sized systems for the delivery of active ingredients to targeted cells. In this work, nano-emulsions composed of miglyol, rapeseed oil and salmon oil were developed as...

The objective of this study was to develop a pharmaceutical O/W emulsion containing plant-derived polyphenol extracts and evaluate its stability and antioxidant activity. O/W emulsions were prepared using ionic surfactant polysorbate 80 (Tween 80®). The odorwas adjusted with few drops of blue sea fragrance. DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) assay was used to evaluate the antioxidant activity...

Release of volatiles in oil emulsion systems containing various fat contents was determined using purge-and-trap dynamic headspace/gas chromatography. Oil emulsions were prepared using 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, or 8% oil, and a standard mixture was prepared using hydrocarbons, aldehydes, ketones, and alcohols. Fat content in oil emulsions reduced the volatility of added volatile standards, and the amoun...

Experimental results are presented about the effects of ionic strength and pH on the mean drop-size after emulsification and on the coalescence stability of emulsions, stabilized by a globular protein beta-lactoglobulin (BLG). The mean drop-size is determined by optical microscopy, whereas the coalescence stability is characterized by centrifugation. In parallel experiments, the zeta-potential ...
