Synthesis and fabrication of films including graphene oxide functionalized with chitosan for regenerative medicine applications

Graphene oxide (GO) has recently gained attention as a scaffold reinforcing agent for tissue engineering. Biomechanical and biological properties through a synergistic effect can be strengthened when combined with other materials such as chitosan (CS). For that reason, chitosan was used for Graphene Oxide (GO) functionalization through an amide group whose formation was evident by bands around 1600 cm−1 in the FTIR analysis. Furthermore, bands...
