“…The ability of surfactants to synergistically influence interfacial tensions has been previously studied by several authors (Zhou & Rosen, 2003) , (Reddy & Ghosh, 2010;Rosen & Hua, 1982;Rosen & Zhou, 2001). To model this relationship, final interfacial tension results…”

“…Thus, the authors believe that whey proteins and phytosterols can be considered to participate in synergism at the emulsion interface. Synergism is defined here as "the condition in which the properties of the surfactant mixture are better than those attainable with the individual surfactants by themselves" (Reddy & Ghosh, 2010).…”

of the phytosterol within the carrier matrix. Currently, there is a limited amount of knowledge on how phytosterols interact at oil-water interfaces, despite research indicating that these interfaces could promote the crystallization of phytosterols and thus decrease bioaccessibility.In order to fill this knowledge gap, this work expands upon a previously studied emulsion system for encapsulating phytosterols and addresses whether phytosterols can crystalize at an oil-in-water emulsion interface. Images from multiple microscopic techniques suggest interfacial phytosterol crystallization in 0.6% phytosterol-enriched emulsions, while interfacial tension results and calculated models showed that whey protein and phytosterols had a synergistic effect on interfacial tension. A deeper understanding of the interfacial behavior of phytosterols in emulsions can provide the functional food and pharmaceutical industry with the knowledge needed to design more bioaccessible phytosterol-enriched products.
