  Investigations on Microbial Growth Inhibition by Carbon Based Nanomaterials

  By Pushpa Singh, Smita Shukla

  Abstract: We have studied the antimicrobial activity of carbon-based nanomaterials e.g. graphene oxide with their mechanism of action. We have synthesized the graphene oxide using modified Hummer’s method from high purity graphite precursors. The microstructures and morphology of graphene-based materials have been studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The specific surface area and porosity analysis of graphene oxide are analyzed using …
