description The delivery and uptake of adequate doses of a number of active compounds, including selected saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (frequently in the form of emulsion systems), is crucial to maintaining a healthy diet. The susceptibility of acids to oxidation and the time stability of emulsions are factors limiting their shelf life and storage time. Those parameters could be improved using selected additives, including antioxidants. In this study, we examined the influence of different bird cherry extracts (varying in the content amounts of bioactive compounds) on the oxidative stability of a model O/W linoleic acid emulsion, using C11-BODIPY581/591 as a fluorescent indicator. We also examined the effect of these extracts on the physicochemical properties of the emulsions and the time stability of the produced emulsion using the dynamic laser scattering technique. The antioxidative efficacy of extracts differed significantly, depending on the extraction method and conditions. The observed differences in the results could be attributed to variations in the specific compositions of the extracts used, which were more or less rich in terms of antioxidants or their synergistic effects. Our results indicated that acetone extract was the most effective with regard to both the oxidation stability and time degradation tests of the emulsions produced. Moreover, the addition of gallic acid did not always have a positive effect on the abovementioned properties.
