Graphene oxide nanofilm to functionalize bioinert high strength ceramics

Revealing bactericidal events on graphene oxide nano films deposited on metal implant surfaces

“…The results obtained for SS316L + GO are in line with other scientific reports 23 and our previous experiments on zirconia substrates. 24 The flakes are well stretched out on SS316L substrates, proving that the flakes have attached to the surface homogeneously. Moreover, the images taken for the SS316L + GO sonicated sample for 15 min confirmed again (Fig.…”

“…29 In our previous study, we presented an innovative method for the functionalization of inert ceramic surfaces by covalent immobilization of GO-nano films. 24 Here, we demonstrate that this method could successfully be adopted for metal substrates, such as medical-grade stainless steel (SS316L).…”

Flake Graphene as an Efficient Agent Governing Cellular Fate and Antimicrobial Properties of Fibrous Tissue Engineering Scaffolds—A Review

“…Some of them (such as masks [ 35 ] or concrete with graphene [ 36 ]) are already commercially available. Others, for instance, supercapacitor devices based on graphene materials [ 37 ] or graphene oxide as a scaffold for bone regeneration [ 38 , 39 , 40 ], are still in the research phase, waiting for their fruitful technical validation. However, large-scale production of cheap and high-quality graphene is a bottleneck of the whole development and research process.…”

Flake Graphene-Based Nanomaterial Approach for Triggering a Ferroptosis as an Attractive Theranostic Outlook for Tackling Non-Small Lung Cancer: A Mini Review

“…A vast majority of the studies were focused on the assessment of GO toxicity during short periods of time; surprisingly, long-term studies over toxicity influences relative to GO flakes were not taken into account [ 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 ]. Another important issue related with this issue is that although the surface modification of GO with materials of different origin (such as nanoparticles, drugs, and polymers) [ 54 ] can improve its biocompatibility, the stability of its later deposition on different surfaces is still unknown [ 55 ]. This parameter should be considered regarding the design and production of high quality flake graphene-based material tailored for some strictly defined, cutting-edge anti-cancer therapies.…”
