08 Nov 2017 33 Citations | The present study shows the timeline of physical and chemical alterations of oxidised carbon nanomaterials, demonstrating a faster degradation of 2D graphene oxide sheets compared to 1D oxidised carbon nanomaterials over 7 days in the presence of an oxidising species. Carbon nanomaterials: graphene oxide degrades rapidly when exposed to hypochloriteOxidised carbon nanomaterials degrade into amorphous structures upon exposure to hypochlorite, a naturally occurring anion in human body. |

What prevents toxicity of reduced graphene oxide in the body?5 answersReduced graphene oxide (RGO) toxicity in the body can be prevented through various methods. One approach is the functionalization of RGO with polymers such as polyethylene glycol, chitosan, and polyvinyl alcohol, which improves biocompatibility, decreases toxicity, and enhances clearance from organs. Another method is the use of a delivery system, such as graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles, to load RGO. This delivery system can enhance the drug delivery effect of RGO and reduce its dark toxicity. Additionally, the synthesis techniques used for RGO fabrication play a crucial role in its biocompatibility. Techniques that involve the use of toxic organic solvents, surfactants, strong acids, and oxidants can introduce contaminants that interact with biological cells and tissues, leading to toxicity. Therefore, it is important to carefully select synthesis methods that minimize the presence of toxic residuals in RGO.
