Why different emulsifiers make the oil droplets bigger or smaller in water environment of the intestines?

micelle size comparison

Our Ultrasorb Pure technology uses oil in water emulsion to make smaller micelles (oil particles in water).

The main difference is that lysolecithin is an oil in water emulsifier, whereas lecithin is a water in oil emulsifier. That allows lysolecithin to have better emulsification compared to lecithin.

When dairy farmers think of mastitis, they often picture visible signs such as swollen udders, abnormal milk, treatments, and discarded milk—hallmarks of clinical mastitis. Yet the greatest financial losses often stem from the less obvious but more widespread threat of subclinical mastitis.

Why Lysolecithin Still Works Even in Low-Fat Animal Diets
For years, many nutritionists believed emulsifiers were only useful when large amounts of oil or fat were added into animal feed. After all, if there is very little added fat in the diet, what exactly is there to emulsify? But newer research is challenging that assumption.
