Popis: Double emulsions are complex liquid dispersion systems in which the droplets of one dispersed liquid are further dispersed in another liquid, producing W/O/W or O/W/O emulsions. W/O/W emulsions are the most studied systems because they have great potential application. However, despite all the advantages, that these systems offer, it is very difficult to obtain stable formulations, and this is the reason for their limited practical application. The use of biopolymers to stabilize double emulsions could give rise to pharmaceutical and food applications. Based on previous studies, appropriate concentrations of gelatin and sodium caseinate (NaCAS) were selected to investigate the possibility of stabilization of double W/O/W emulsions by this system, if they are present in the outer aqueous phase. The investigations showed that interactions between gelatin and NaCAS in the outer water phase, as well as the composition of the mixtures of lipohilic emulsifiers used for the primary W/O emulsions preparation, influences the droplets size and sedimentation stability of double emulsions. The most stable emulsions were obtained at a NaCAS concentration when an insoluble coacervate forms (0.5 mass %) and at concentrations higher then this, when soluble negatively charged complexes adsorb at the oil/water interface.
