“…The synthetic precursor materials of g-C 3 N 4 are usually metal-free, oxygen-free, and nitrogen-rich compounds, such as cyanamide − and guanidine hydrochloride. − The synthesis of g-C 3 N 4 is typically divided into two categories: “top-down” and “bottom-up” (Table ). The “top-down” process involves the reduction of large blocks into smaller particles and nanosheets through techniques such as chemical exfoliation, − microwave exfoliation, − ultrasonic exfoliation, − and template-assisted. − For example, g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets modified by different surface groups can be obtained by chemical exfoliation of bulk g-C 3 N 4 with different solutions . 3D g-C 3 N 4 with high porosity can be synthesized by g-C 3 N 4 prepared with a NaCl template .…”

Graphite carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) is a two-dimensional conjugated polymer with a unique energy band structure similar to graphene. Due to its outstanding analytical advantages, such as relatively small band gap (2.7 eV), low-cost synthesis, high thermal stability, excellent photocatalytic ability, and good biocompatibility, g-C 3 N 4 has attracted the interest of researchers and industry, especially in the medical field. This paper summarizes the latest research on g-C 3 N 4 -based composites in various biomedical applications, including therapy, diagnostic imaging, biosensors, antibacterial, and wearable devices. In addition, the application prospects and possible challenges of g-C 3 N 4 in nanomedicine are also discussed in detail. This review is expected to inspire emerging biomedical applications based on g-C 3 N 4 .
