Abstract: Green tea catechins, especially epigallocatechin-3gallate (EGCG), have been widely studied for their antiviral activities against a long list of pathogenic viruses. However, the water soluble EGCG is unstable and undergoes auto-oxidation rapidly. To address this issue, lipid soluble EGCG was developed such as EGCG-palmitates (EC16) to be formulated in a variety of stable and effective products such as hand hygiene and surface disinfectant products.
