Abstract
The effect of added Aminoplex, Glucoplex, nutrient additives and calcium chloride on the stability of a fat emulsion (Intralipid) has been examined. The conclusions are as follows: (a) Aminoplex and Glucoplex do not cause a decrease in the physical stability of mixed systems that contain fat droplets stored at room temperature for at least 7 days. (b) The mixed systems are stable even in the presence of high electrolyte loads (> 600 mmol litre-1 expressed in terms of monovalent cation). (c) The amino acids in Aminoplex could be having a stabilizing effect on the emulsion system by the adsorption of components to the oil/water interface.
