The aim of this study was to characterize the formation of emulsions by droplet size analysis and turbidimetry during reconstitution from a solid dosage form, namely from dry emulsion systems, which carry an oil phase for poorly soluble active ingredients. For the dry emulsion systems tablets were prepared either from oil-in-water systems using a freeze-drying process or through direct compression containing the same oil and excipients. The ratios of oil to emulgents and oil to xanthan gum were equal in both methods. In the preparation methods applied, mannitol, erythritol and lactose were used as excipients and mannitol was found to be the most effective excipient based on droplet size reconstitution, turbidimetry and physical properties. Quality control involved testing the physical properties of tablets and characterizing the reconstituted emulsions.

Emulsions are widely utilized in food systems but often face stability challenges due to environmental stresses, such as pH, ionic strength, and temperature fluctuations. Fish skin gelatin (FSG), a promising natural emulsifier, suffers from limited functional properties, restricting its broader application. This study explored the enhancement of emulsion stability in Litsea cubeba essential oil systems through the glycosylation of fish skin gelatin (FSG) with dextran via the dry Maillard reaction.

This study developed three composite slurries for coating recycled aggregate by incorporating polyacrylate emulsion, fly ash, and gypsum into a cement-based mixture. The filling and pozzolanic effects of fly ash help to improve microcracks in the recycled aggregates. The polyacrylate emulsion forms a strong bonding layer between the cement matrix and the aggregates, enhancing the interfacial bond strength.

Ball milling treatment could affect the microstructures, improve the emulsification properties of curdlan (CL) and regulate the emulsion gel properties of CL based emulsion gel in two-ways. With increasing ball milling time (1 h-8 h), the particle size first decreased and then increased, the relative crystallinity decreased, and the contact angle increased. Ball milled curdlan (BMCL)-6 h showed the best emulsifying property and stability, which was the combined effects of decreased particle size and increased hydrophobic property.

Drug delivery through the skin is a widely used therapeutic method for the treatment of local dermatologic conditions. Dermal and transdermal methods of drug delivery offer numerous advantages, but some of the most important aspects of drug absorption through the skin need to be considered. Film-forming systems (FFS) represent a new mode of sustained drug delivery that can be used to replace traditional topical formulations such as creams, ointments, pastes, or patches.
