derived from this material – graphene oxide – passes the tests in the fight against brain cancer. Research is conducted at the School of Life Sciences.
Radio Information Agency said the director of the Institute of Electronic Materials Technology Zygmunt ?uczy?ski – preliminary results are promising. Tumor cells (glioma) die and leave the most harmful residues.
Zygmunt ?uczy?ski points out, however, that for now they are only academic research. However, further work in this direction will be continued adds the director. Now graphene will be modified (in terms of physical and chemical properties), it is about creating the most suitable material for the study of cancer – adds the director.
Graphene is a pure carbon one atom thick. Researchers from the Institute of Electronic Materials Technology in Warsaw, conducting research on graphene since 2006. Obtained a patent for its preparation using silicon carbide.
