Response surface methodology was used to investigate the influence of Alyssum homolocarpum seed gum (0.25–1%), Tween 80 (0.1–1%) and NaCl (0–1%) on characteristics of ultrasonically prepared corn oil-in-water emulsion. For each response, a second-order polynomial model was developed using multiple linear regression analysis. It was shown that increasing the gum concentration and Tween 80 content decreased the mean diameter of droplets, span and creaming index. Although the increase of gum concentration had a positive effect on viscosity, Tween 80 revealed to have no significant effect on these responses. Optimum formulation for a stable emulsion was found to be 1% A. homolocarpum seed gum, 0.96% Tween 80 and no NaCl. However, using salt at higher gum concentration did not have negative effect on the emulsion properties.
