Answer:
polyglycerol polyricinoleate
Although polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR, E476) is considered as the 'classic' surfactant when it comes to stabilization of W/O emulsions, the focal point of current research has recently shifted towards the use of particle stabilizers that allow longer term stabilization against coalescence and Ostwald ripening.

Answer:
Protein is the emulsifying component in an oil-in-water emulsion.
Explanation:
How is OW emulsion stabilized?
- The O/W emulsion is thus stabilised against coalescence by steric and electrostatic hindrance, in contrast to the W/O (convex) interface, which is shown to have low barrier for coalescence.
- Although polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR, E476) is considered as the 'classic' surfactant when it comes to stabilisation of W/O emulsions, the focal point of current research has recently shifted towards the use of particle stabilisers that allow longer term stabilisation against coalescence and Ostwald ripening.
- The principal emulsifying agent for w/o emulsion is Lampblack or soot. Other emulsifying agents are the heavy metal salts of the fatty acids, long-chain alcohols, etc.
