Apigenin has attracted a great interest in the food industry due to the wide range of its biological activities including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. The encapsulation of apigenin in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions could overcome its low solubility and lead to the development of new functional food products. The aim of this study is to formulate food-grade O/W submicron emulsions loaded with apigenin using high-pressure homogenization. Supersaturated solutions of 0.1 wt% apigenin in ETHYL OLEATE (cas 111-62-6) were heated at 100 °C for 30, 60, or 120 min and the supernant after centrifugation were used as to-be-dispersed phases. An aqueous solution containing 1 wt% tween 20 was used as the continuous phase. We examined the effect of heating process of the ethyl oleate prior to emulsification and the homogenization-pressure (60–150 MPa) on the physico-chemical characteristics of the O/W emulsions immediately after formulation and during storage. Submicron O/W emulsions were formulated and the lowest average droplet diameter (dav) was 169 ± 2.082 nm with a polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.06 ± 0.002. After 30 days of storage at 4 °C, the O/W emulsion formulated remained physically stable with little change in their dav and PDI values. The preheat treatment of ethyl oleate, affected the initial loaded apigenin concentration but hardly affected the physico-chemical stability of O/W emulsions. However, HPLC analysis demonstrated that the emulsification pressure was a relevant parameter affecting apigenin retention during the storage of O/W emulsions. Apigenin degradation in ethyl oleate O/W emulsions followed zero order kinetics and about 91.5–93.5% of apigenin could be retained in O/W emulsions after 30 days of storage.
