Zusammenfassung:TEM images of colloidal complexes of EGCG with MCE 4 formed at 1:1 w/w ratio (Scale bars 500nm and 200nm). The image clearly indicates appearance of spherical particles clustered together. Novelty of work: We demonstrate for the first time, simple fabrication of self associated colloidal complexes based on polymer–polyphenol interaction. Special consideration to their characterisation by ITC, in vitro release and antioxidant studies are also highlighted. [Display omitted] ► Epigallocatechin gallate:methylcellulose colloidal complex via simple addition. ► Binding parameters evaluated by Iso thermal titration calorimetry. ► Sustained release and improvement in antioxidant property of EGCG. The present work deals with the preparation and characterisation of colloidal complexes from association of water soluble cellulose derivative (methylcellulose) and green tea polyphenol–EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate). Colloidal complexes with well defined size range of 95–300nm (polydispersity index
