Chitosan is a polysaccharide widely used as a structuring agent in foods and other materials because of its positive charge (amino groups). At present, however, it is difficult to form and stabilize emulsions using chitosan due to its high hydrophilicity. In this study, oil-in-water emulsions were prepared using a one-pot green-chemistry method. The chitosan and aldehyde molecules were in situ interfacially conjugated during homogenization, which promoted the adsorption of chitosan onto the oil droplet surfaces where they
