Sodium alginate conjugated graphene oxide as a new carrier for drug delivery system

The biomedical applications of graphene-based materials, including drug delivery, have grown rapidly in the past few years. The aim of this present study is to enhance the efficiency and specificity of anticancer drug delivery and realize intelligently controlled release and targeted delivery. Graphene oxide (GO) was first prepared from purified natural graphite according to a modified Hummers' method. Then GO was functionalized with adipic acid...
