Compartmentalization of lutein in simple and double emulsions containing protein nanoparticles: Effects on stability and bioaccessibility

•The double emulsions had higher encapsulation efficiency.•The W-L/O/W emulsion displayed the lower lutein stability against light exposure.•The incorporation of lutein in the oil phase contributed to its chemical stability.•The W-L/O/W displayed higher lutein bioaccessibility after in vitro digestion.
