Monostearine is not available, which allows it to be replaced in lime oil liniment PB V?

Answer

By the Monostearine Ph. Eur., which is now available. This is no longer self-emulsifying due to the lack of a small amount of soap. This was the Monostearin PB V though and this monostearine had O/W Emulgatorische properties. Monostearine Ph. Eur is a strong W/O emulsifier.
due to the absence of soap a number of problems are avoided, which we met with the Monostearine PB V.
