The Evaluation of Parenterally Administered Emulsion Formulations

  • Chapter
Book cover Radionuclide Imaging in Drug Research

Abstract

An emulsion is the dispersion of one immiscible liquid in another. There are two main types of emulsion which are of pharmaceutical interest, the oil in water emulsion (o/w) and the water in oil emulsion (w/o). More complex systems can be prepared by the re-emulsification of a w/o or o/w emulsion. For instance, water in oil in water (w/o/w) emulsions can be prepared by the emulsifica-tion of a w/o emulsion. These complex systems are termed double or multiple emulsions.
