Abstract
Nanoparticles prepared by melt-emulsification from lipids solid at roo m temperature do not always represent suspension particles. Dispersed trilaurin forms metastable supercooled melts at room and refrigerator temperature. Such systems can be considered as o/w emulsions but not a s dispersions of solid lipid nanoparticles.
