Graphene found effective for targeted cancer treatment at the molecular level

Scientists from Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) and Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) and their colleagues have used multi-functional graphene to develop a medical technology that allows for targeted cancer treatment at the...

Israeli researchers develop graphene-based self-sterilizing air filter

Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel are developing a new type of graphene-enhanced air-filter that self-sterilizes and decontaminates based on water filtration technology. The new nanotechnology is based on laser-induced graphene (LIG) water...
