Microchannel (MC) emulsification is a novel technique for preparing monodispersed emulsions. This study demonstrates preparing water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsions using MC emulsification. The W/O/W emulsions were prepared by a two-step emulsification process employing MC emulsification as the
Fluorocarbon-in-water emulsions are being explored clinically as synthetic oxygen carriers in general surgery. Stabilizing fluorocarbon emulsions against coarsening is critical in maintaining the biocompatibility of the formulation following intravenous administration. It has been purported that the
Water-in-oil (w/o) emulsions are of great interest in many areas of the life sciences, including food technology, bioprocess engineering, and pharmaceuticals. Such emulsions are complex multi-component systems and the molecular mechanisms which lead to a stable emulsion are yet to be fully
Though it is commonly known that a small amount of water can be present in triglyceride oil, a molecular picture of how water molecules organize in the oil phase is lacking. We investigate the hydrogen-bond configuration and dynamics of water in triacetin, tributyrin and trioctanoin using linear
Water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) insulin micelles were prepared, and the possibility of insulin absorption in a micellar form was examined. In this preparation, insulin was trapped in oil droplets of oleic acid in glyceryl-alpha-monooleate. (1) W/O/W insulin micelles were absorbed from the ligated
This review focuses on recent advances in the understanding of lipid crystallisation at or in the vicinity of an interface in emulsified systems and the consequences regarding stability, structure and thermal behaviour. Amphiphilic molecules such as emulsifiers are preferably adsorbed at the
A unique lipolytic bacterium was isolated in a selective growth system consisting of 99% triglycerides and a 1% water phase. The bacterium, termed Pseudomonas aeruginosa YS-7, was able to grow in an environment of low water content and could also survive amphipathic, osmotic, and matrical water
The preparation of powdered water-in-oil (w/o) emulsions by gentle aeration of w/o emulsions stabilized by hydrophobic fumed silica particles in the presence of oleophobic fluorinated clay particles is reported for an alkane and a triglyceride oil. The resultant powders consist of water drops
Determination of quantitative de novo fat synthesis rates is important in our understanding of the role of nutritional factors in macronutient utilization and obesity development. To address these questions, we developed and applied a method for measuring lipogenesis using the uptake of deuterium
In recent years, sebum oil has been found to play a key role in the regulation of the hydration of the outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum. Understanding how a major component of the sebum oil, the triglyceride tri-cis-6-hexadecenoin (TG), interacts with water is an important step in
OBJECTIVE
This paper aims to elucidate quantitative relationships between small molecule solubility/water-uptake in triglyceride/monoglyceride lipid formulations, the chemical structure of the solute, and the solvent composition.
METHODS
Solubility and water uptake in tricaprylin/1-monocaprylin and
Viscoelastic behavior of proteins at interfaces is a critical determinant of their ability to stabilize emulsions. We therefore used air bubble surfactometry and drop volume tensiometry to examine the dynamic interfacial properties of two plasma apolipoproteins involved in chylomicron assembly:
OBJECTIVE
To determine if hydration of long- and medium-chain triglyceride oils (long = soybean and olive, medium = Miglyol 812) has a significant effect on the ability to solubize the model hydrophobic compounds progesterone, estradiol, and testosterone.
METHODS
Soybean, olive, and Miglyol 812 oils
