Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic, systemic metabolic disease that leads to multiple complications, even death. Meanwhile, the number of people with diabetes worldwide is increasing year by year. Sensors play an important role in the development of biomedical devices. The development of efficient, stable, and inexpensive glucose sensors for the continuous monitoring of blood glucose levels has received widespread attention because they can provide reliable data for diabetes prevention and diagnosis. Electrospun nanofibers are new kinds of functional nanocomposites that show incredible capabilities for high-level biosensing. This article reviews glucose sensors based on electrospun nanofibers. The principles of the glucose sensor, the types of glucose measurement, and the glucose detection methods are briefly discussed. The principle of electrospinning and its applications and advantages in glucose sensors are then introduced. This article provides a comprehensive summary of the applications and advantages of polymers and nanomaterials in electrospun nanofiber-based glucose sensors. The relevant applications and comparisons of enzymatic and non-enzymatic nanofiber-based glucose sensors are discussed in detail. The main advantages and disadvantages of glucose sensors based on electrospun nanofibers are evaluated, and some solutions are proposed. Finally, potential commercial development and improved methods for glucose sensors based on electrospinning nanofibers are discussed.

Polyurethane/siloxane membranes containing graphene oxide nanoplatelets as antimicrobial wound dressings: in vitro and in vivo evaluations. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2017; 28:75. [PMID: 28386852 DOI: 10.1007/s10856-017-5881-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2016] [Accepted: 03/08/2017] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
Preserving wounds from bacterial and fungal infections and retaining optimum moist environment over damaged tissue are major challenges in wound care management. Application of wound dressings with antimicrobial activity and appropriate wound exudates handling ability is of particular significance for promoting wound healing. To this end, preparation and evaluation of novel wound dres1sings made from polyurethane/siloxane network containing graphene oxide (GO) nanoplatelets are described. The particular sol-gel hydrolysis/condensation procedure applied for the preparation of dressings leads to an appropriate distribution of GO nanoplatelets in the dressing membranes. The crosslinked siloxane domains and the presence of GO nanoplatelets within polymeric chains offered necessary mechanical strength for dressings. Meanwhile, a combination of hydrophilic and hydrophobic moieties in dressing backbone enabled suitable wound exudate management. Therefore, both of physical protection from external forces and preservation of moist environment over wound were attained by using the designed dressings. Widespread antimicrobial activity against gram-positive, gram-negative and fungal strains was recorded for the dressing with the optimum amount of GO, meanwhile, very good cytocompatibility against fibroblast cells was noted for these dressings. In vivo assay of the GO containing dressing on rat animal model reveals that the dressing can promote wound healing by complete re-epithelization, enhanced vascularization and collagen deposition on healed tissue.

Abstract
Graphene has emerged as a novel green broad-spectrum antibacterial material, with little bacterial resistance and tolerable cytotoxic effect on mammalian cells. It exerts its antibacterial action via physical damages such as direct contact of its sharp edges with bacterial membranes and destructive extraction of lipid molecules. These damages also include wrapping and photothermal ablation mechanisms. Alternatively, chemical damage of bacteria is caused by oxidative stress with the generation of reactive oxygen species and charge transfer. Furthermore, graphene has been used as a support to disperse and stabilize various nanomaterials, such as metals, metal oxides, and polymers, with high antibacterial efficiency due to the synergistic effect. In addition, graphene-based antibiotic drug delivery platforms have been constructed. Due to the superior antibacterial properties and good biocompatibility, graphene-based nanocomposites have a wide range of applications, such as antibacterial packaging, wound dressing, and water disinfection. In this review, we highlight the antibacterial mechanism of graphene and summarize recent advances related to the antibacterial activity of graphene-based materials. Many of the recent application examples are further discussed. We hope that this review provides valuable insight, stimulates broader concerns, and spurs further developments in this promising field.

Abstract
Graphene materials have unique structures and outstanding thermal, optical, mechanical and electronic properties. In the last decade, these materials have attracted substantial interest in the field of nanomaterials, with applications ranging from biosensors to biomedicine. Among these applications, great advances have been made in the field of antibacterial agents. Here, recent advancements in the use of graphene and its derivatives as antibacterial agents are reviewed. Graphene is used in three forms: the pristine form; mixed with other antibacterial agents, such as Ag and chitosan; or with a base material, such as poly (N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) and poly (lactic acid) (PLA). The main mechanisms proposed to explain the antibacterial behaviors of graphene and its derivatives are the membrane stress hypothesis, the oxidative stress hypothesis, the entrapment hypothesis, the electron transfer hypothesis and the photothermal hypothesis. This review describes contributions to improving these promising materials for antibacterial applications.
