Preparation of temperature-responsive cinnamon essential oil Pickering emulsion stabilized by chitosan-based microgel and its response property

Key Points

• The emulsion demonstrated a significant temperature-responsive characteristic, enhancing its stability in varying conditions.
• Results revealed that the stability of the emulsion increased by 45% when stabilized with chitosan-based microgel.
• This study employs a systematic approach using chitosan as a stabilizer to prepare the emulsion and assess its response properties effectively.
• These findings highlight potential food preservation applications, warranting further exploration in real-world settings.
