The effect of four different types of sucrose fatty acid esters as nonionic emulsifiers on the physicochemical properties of water-soluble phytosterol nanodispersions was investigated. In general, the mean particle sizes of the prepared phytosterol nanodispersions ranged from 2.8 to 259.9 nm. The ph...
