Future of graphene in bio-medical application

Abstract

stimuli.12 Graphene is also useful material for birth control and it prevents the sexually transmitted dieses reported by University of Manchester researcher’s team. The Graphene is one of the attractive material for cancer treatments. Recently a new microfluidic bio-chip based on graphene oxide being developed which can caught the tumor cells from blood and support their growth for further analysis.13 The graphene oxide (GO) is one of the efficient nano-carrier for drug delivery reported by Dai et al.14 The Genetic therapy using Graphene oxide (GO) is one of the promising approach to treat various diseases caused by genetic disorders, Parkinson’s disease, cystic fibrosis etc.15 Graphene is also useful for bio sensing and bio-imaging. Basically doped graphene, pristine graphene, graphene oxide (GO) and chemically reduced GO (rGO) are useful for bio-sensing application. Using these material we can detect different kind of biomolecules such as thrombin, dopamine, oligonucleotide, ATP, amino acid etc.16–20 Here, I have explained few recent review work on graphene based nano-material and its application in medical domain. Hopefully, in near future I can contribute some work on graphene for medical application.
