Particle stabilized (‘Pickering’) oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions were fabricated using sugar beet pectin (SBP) microgel particles (SBPM) that differed in their crosslinking density and therefore elasticity. Droplet size distributions emulsion microstructures investigated via light scattering complimentary imaging techniques: microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy electron microscopy. Comp...

Summary The evaluation of functional properties different chia protein hydrolysates (CPH) and their application in O/W emulsions were studied. Enzymatic treatments with pepsin, pancreatin or the sequential action pepsin–pancreatin applied to hydrolyse a concentrate (CPC). Oil‐in‐water stabilised CPC these CPHs, without mucilage, prepared at pH 7 10. Particle size, global stability, ζ ‐potential...

A technique is described for collecting thoracic duct lymph in a portable glass saddle from an unrestrained rat. Uniformly labelled oleic acid in various physical states was given to rats with thoracic duct and bile fistulae to study the influence of bile salts on the amount absorbed and on the route of transport and esterification after absorption. It is suggested that in addition to their emu...

Microgels are promising materials in drug delivery and biomedicine. Although monodisperse microgels would offer considerable advantages, most microgels investigated and used today are polydisperse in size. We report on the fabrication of 10 mum sized monodisperse microgels by emulsifying an aqueous dextran-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (dex-HEMA) phase within an oil phase at the junction of microfl...

MR. J. PICKTHALL.' When talking of H.L.B. values, the speaker has referred to the oil solubility of calcium soaps. Are these soaps in fact oil soluble in the sense that we are considering ? In discussing the emulsifying action of the calcium soaps, the speaker has compared them with glyceryl distearate and aluminium stearate. Glyceryl distearate is indeed oil soluble but commercial aluminium st...

A process of emulsifying and centrifuging abattoir specimens before plating out is described. Brucella abortus was isolated more successfully by this process than by conventional methods, especially in low grade infections. The 5 different media used were equally effective in our attempts at isolation, but growth did not necessarily occur on all 5 plates. In dairy cows, specimens from supra-mam...

Ionic liquids (ILs) have been exploited to improve the absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs. Custom-made ILs solubilized very high quantities of the poorly water-soluble drugs, danazol and itraconazole, and maintained drug solubilization under simulated gastro-intestinal conditions. A danazol-containing self-emulsifying IL formulation gave rise to 4.3-fold higher exposure than the crystalli...
