Health and Safety

•      •  Medical devices: Graphene’s highly configurable and modifiable traits make it an excellent candidate for usage in medical devices including
          bio-sensors, diagnosis devices, microbial detectors, DNA sequencing tools, and a host of other medical devices. Much of the most exciting
          research in medicine right now revolves around the unique traits of graphene.
  
  
•      •  Bioimaging: Properly applied, graphene can be utilized in solutions to produce a contrast agent for photoaucustic and thermoacustic imaging.
          More promisingly, certain morphologies of graphene nanoparticles appear to be safe enough in low concentrations to allow for advanced
          biomedical applications.
  
  
•      •  Tissue engineering: Graphene works as a safe and effective reinforcement agent in various composites for bone tissue applications, with the
          potential for additional applications as research progresses.
  
  
•      •  Biomicrorobotics: Though still in the early days of experimenting, researchers have showed promising results with biomicrorobotics utilizing
          graphene in extremely tiny particles, producing a living humidity sensor.
  
  
•      •  Drug delivery: The interaction of graphene nanoparticles with cancerous cells has suggested a number of potential avenues for cancer
          drug delivery to be explored.
