“…Emulsifying agents are known to interact with several other components in emulsion systems, which lead to different effects on the stability of the emulsion, depending on the affinity of the molecules (Dickinson et al, 2003;Gharibzahedi et al, 2012;McClements, 2004a;Mirhosseini, Tan, Hamid, et al, 2009). The creaming index was expected to be directly influenced by xanthan concentration (Krstonošić, Dokić, Dokić, & Dapčević, 2009), whereas some authors reported that at certain concentration, stabilisers like xanthan gum induce a higher creaming rate by the mechanism of depletion flocculation (Chanamai & McClements, 2001).…”
