Fig. 2. Therefore, compared with the other emulsions of the Wseries, the lack of droplet size fluctuations during storage rendersthis particular emulsion the most stable of them.Similar results were found for the second series of emulsionswith 5%, 10% and 20% (v/v) red wine in the aqueous phase (seriesR). In fact, the optimum – i.e. more stable – emulsion accordingto the droplet size distribution curves was also in this case the onewith 20% (v/v) red wine. The type of its size distribution curves overa period of 60 days was very similar to the ones of Fig. 2 with theonly difference being that their maxima appeared at smaller dropletsizes (approximately 35 _m for R and 60 _m for W). Moreover, thewidth of these size distribution curves (i.e. of the emulsion with20% (v/v) red wine in the aqueous phase) was almost equal to thatshown in Fig. 2 (i.e. of the curves of the emulsion with 20% (v/v)white wine in the aqueous phase). Another similarity of these twoseries of emulsions, W and R, was that the ones with red as wellas the ones with white wine in the aqueous phase have producedlarger oil droplets than the control emulsion C with 0% wine in theaqueous phase, as derived from
