Antarctic krill oil (KO) is known for its poor oxidative stability, especially in emulsion systems. In this experiment, a complex of scallop water-soluble protein-resveratrol (SWPs-RES) was mixed with KO to create high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) with varying RES ratios. The addition of RES led to noticeable conformational changes in SWPs, including fluorescence bursts, alterations in secondary structure, and modifications in binding motifs. The SWPs-RES complex (1:0.2) demonstrated the most effective free radical scavenging activities (HO: 38.61%, DPPH: 72.49%, ABTS: 85.66%), while the SWPs-RES complex (1:0.025) exhibited the highest emulsifying capacity. Furthermore, HIPEs containing the SWPs-RES complex (1:0.2) displayed improved rheological properties, physical stability, and enhanced oxidative stability against lipid oxidation during storage and simulated in vitro digestion. This study lays a scientific foundation for the utilization of scallop protein and Antarctic krill oil in the food industry.
