The evaluation of potential risk of graphene to human body has been carried out due to its exceptional promise in various applications, such as glucose detection, drug delivery, and cellular imaging.Yuwei HuFenghua LiDongxue HanLi Niu
In this chapter, we have briefly discussed the recent advances in graphene-based drug delivery systems, in addition to the current status, future prospects, and challenges of these nanovehicles.doi:10.1016/B978-0-12-814944-7.00011-4Renu Geetha Bai...
Introduction: Recently, the use of chitosan (CS) in the drug delivery has reached an acceptable maturity. Graphene-based drug delivery is also increasing rapidly due to its unique physical, mechanical, chemical and electrical properties. Therefore, the combination of CS and graphene can provide a ...
as potential carriers of isoniazid (Iso). The results confirmed that the AlN- and AlP-doped GQDs could be used as potential carriers for drug delivery applications. Recently, they [169] also has studied the effects of different N-functionalities groups in the drug delivery performance of N-GQDs...
[2]. Due to their low toxicity, the carbon nanoonions can also be used for the intercellular drug delivery vehicles of membrane-impermeable molecules. [3] Carbon nanospheres have been demonstrated to target tumors, and as a result can be used for the infrared sensing of cancer cells, in ...
Despite advances in treatment modalities, it remains largely incurable with an extremely poor prognosis. Treatment of GBM is associated with several difficulties such as the risk of damaging healthy brain tissues during surgery, drug resistance and inadequate drug delivery across the blood brain barrier...
Graphene is a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb-like pattern. Graphene is considered to be the world's thinnest, strongest and most conductive material - of both electricity and heat. All of these properties are exciting resear

In this work we have solved the issue of cytotoxicity due to 'small size' and 'ROS generation' without compromising with fluorescence properties of GQDs. P-GQDs was used for bioimaging and drug delivery in HeLa cells. In short we can obtain biocompatible P-GQDs in very short span of time ...
The lipid solubility of drug molecules is another important factor that can affect efflux pumps. Efflux transporters such as p-glycoproteins play an important role in drug accumulation and externalization [8]; modification of drugs can enable avoidance of this type of efflux. Innovative therapeutic ...
