The mean size of particles and Polydispersity Index (PdI) of the emulsions were estimated through the dynamic light scattering in a laser diffractometer (Zetasizer NanoZS, Malvern Instruments, Worcestershire, UK). The emulsions were diluted before the examination with milli-Q water at a proportion of 1:100 (v/v) in order to prevent multiple dispersion effects. The PdI value refers to a measurement of the particle size distribution. Analyses were conducted in triplicate.
