Abstract

Multiple emulsions of the W1/O/W2 type are promising tools for encapsulating bioactive ingredients in the inner aqueous droplets. It is necessary, however, to control the factors influencing their encapsulation efficiency. One important factor is the particle size because it determines the surface area available for mass transport. Because of the coexistence of water and oil droplets in multiple emulsions, there are numerous factors that have an impact on particle size, for example, oil phase composition, interfacial properties, and viscosity of the phases. The purpose of this study was to systematically investigate the effect of these factors on particle sizes in multiple emulsions.
