Abstract

Electrostatic interactions between the dispersed vesicular globules of W/O/W emulsions can be controlled by the magnitudes of isoelectric point of proteins immobilized in the inner aqueous phase of the globules. A certain amount of saccharides dissolved in the two aqueous phases of the emulsions plays a role in an increase in hydration repulsion between the globules due to the formation of thick hydration layer on the globules. An attempt at estimating total potential energy of interactions between the vesicular globules has been made in consideration of the hydration force.
