Understanding Emulsions in Pharmaceuticals
Emulsions are dispersions where small liquid globules are distributed in an immiscible vehicle. While many pharmaceutical products are emulsions, some may fall into different categories. There are two main types of emulsions: oil dispersed in water (O/W) and water dispersed in oil (W/O). Factors aff
