Background:
The root extracts of Asparagus racemosus (shatamuli) has been used as benign as reducing agent to
reduce graphene oxide (GO) to reduced form of graphene oxide (rGO). The root extract used as a green reducing agent that
is non-toxic, eco-friendly and natural therapeutic.
Methods:
The formation of rGO was identified using XRD, FTIR, TEM and EDX techniques.
Results:
The DLS and Zeta potential data revealed that the hydrodynamic size of these rGO is lower than 200 nm with
optimal charge.
Conclusion:
These results may be useful for the use of GO as probe in biomedical research where the plant species has
known biomedical applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
