Cellular Responses to Graphene Oxide Sheets Very technical presentation so not easy to analyze for a non-specialist. But I think this more or less describes the expt and results.
Graphene Oxide (Go) is associated with potential adverse health effects such as oxidative stress, inflammation and cyto-toxicity
So what are the properties of this material that can lead to injury?
Looked at - the correlation of cellular responses with the lateral dimensions of the the GO (large vs small) - the effect of proteins "which can absorb on the surface of these sheets" (which is especially relevant to in vitro conditions)
Manipulated Variables: - large vs small GOs - presence or absence of "serum" (has to do with interactions with proteins)
