Code Type Size (nm) Zeta potential (mV)
W1 O/W with soybean oil 256.3 ± 5.5 −19.9 ± 0.8
W2 O/W with squalene 238.7 ± 8.1 −25.2 ± 0.5
W3 O/W with soybean oil and terpineol 216.2 ± 3.7 −19.0 ± 0.6
O1 W/O with soybean oil 33.6 ± 1.6 −2.0 ± 0.4
O2 W/O with squalene 125.0 ± 2.7 −6.0 ± 0.2
O3 W/O with soybean oil and terpineol 18.1 ± 0.3 0.4 ± 0.2
