Abstract (EN): The distribution of a homologous series of polyphenol derivatives of increasing lipophilicity has been determined in fish oil-in-water emulsions and nanoemulsions by the pseudophase model. One of the hypotheses on which the pseudophase model is based, is that its application is independent of the size of emulsion droplets. In agreement with our hypothesis, results showed that the smaller droplet size found in nanoemulsions does not affect partition constants of gallic acid (GA) and its esters. The antioxidant efficiency of GA and gallates in the emulsified systems used, correlated positively with the concentration of antioxidant at the interfacial region. The increase in the oil/water ratio increased the overall oxidative stability of emulsions but decreased the antioxidant efficiency of the more lipophilic derivatives. This can be assigned to the fact that, increasing the oil phase volume, the interfacial concentration decreased for the more lipophilic antioxidants.
