In an additional study by Yuli-Amar et al., in order to achieve low-viscosity reverse hexagonal phases at room temperature, ethanol and diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (Transcutol) were added to the ternary GMO/TAG/water mixture [29], These studies were based on findings showing that alcohols can destroy liquid-crystal phases, and ethanol and PEG were shown to form discontinuous micellar cubic and sponge phases instead of bicontinuous phases (49-51). It was shown that the addition of Transcutol or ethanol to the GMO/TAG/water mixture enabled the formation of a room temperature fluid Hn phase.

The water-soluble organic solvents in commercially available solubilized oral formulations are polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400), ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin, and Transcutol HP. The solvent Transcutol is purified diethylene glycol monoethyl ether and is a powerful solubilizer that is used in various European products.
