Fig 1. Formation of cutinsomes with pectin monitored by opalescence.

Fig 1

Transition of aleuritic acid (black squares) and aleuritic acid with pectin (24:1 w/w-red circles, 12:1 w/w-blue triangles, 6:1 w/w-green inverted triangles) solutions from micellar to nanoparticle state monitored at 480 nm. The absorbance increase is associated with the opalescence resulting from the appearance and aggregation of nanoparticles. Chemical structures of pectin and aleuritic acid are included.
