This is not as simple as it might seem. The answer really depends on the nature of the emulsion droplets and the surfactant used to stabilize the emulsion. For example, when phospholipids are used as emulsifiers, they are generally present in a monolayer on the emulsion droplets and as free liposomes as well. Depending on the nature of the oil phase, the refractive index of the liposomes may dominate the scattering, and what you measure may not be what you think you are measuring. I actually prefer methods where one separates the ensemble of particles into monosized fractions prior to measurement, for example the family of field flow fractionation measurements. Alternatively, if you have enough of a density difference between the particles and medium, one can utilize photosedimentation.
