Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) was isolated from Cycas thouarsii leaves for the first time and encapsulated in aqueous core poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanocapsules (NCs). This work investigates antimicrobial activity and in vivo reno-protective effects of EGCG-PLGA NCs in cisplatin-induced...
