Dual-responsive colloidosome-like microgels as the building blocks for phase inversion of Pickering emulsions

Abstract

The intelligent regulation of microgel-stabilized Pickering emulsions with multi-responsiveness is presently constrained to the processes of emulsification and destabilization. However, the expansion of multi-control over Pickering emulsions to involve phase...

Proteinaceous Microsphere-Based Water-in-Oil Pickering Emulsions for Preservation of Chlorella Cells

“…Meanwhile, the adsorption of colloidal particles at the interface will form a rigid barrier, which can alleviate the pollution of microbial molecules. Additionally, the surface modifiability and functionalization of colloidal particles provide the ability to selectively control the emulsion types (o/w, w/o, multiple emulsions) and morphologies, thereby enabling the design and fabrication of environmentally responsive Pickering emulsions that respond to stimuli such as pH, temperature, light, and magnetic fields [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ]. Liu et al [ 37 ] constructed water-in-water (w/w) Pickering emulsions for the microchamber culture of Lactobacillus helveticus, demonstrating that a w/w Pickering emulsion provides a new approach and a great platform for the culture of probiotics.…”
