(a) Creation of NO in various concentration of NaNO2 solution. Amount of NO increased until 500 mM NaNO2 and reached a plateau at 800 mM (F0: Fluorescence intensity at 0 mM NaNO2 solution). (b) The size of emulsions prepared with varying HLB value. HLB value of 7 produced the smallest emulsions among the tested HLB values ranging from 4 to 7. (c) Diameter of emulsions at different mixture ratio of surfactant, oil and water. The NE was fabricated by mixtures of oil and water in the ratio 6: 4 with 1.5% (v/v) surfactant.
