Description

Anna Maria Fresegna and co-authors test the safety of few-layer graphene on human airway cells in this 2024 study. Graphene materials have many promising uses, but their health effects are still being mapped. The team exposed a bronchial cell line to varied doses of the material for one day.

At the highest dose, more cells died, self-destructed, or suffered membrane harm. The team also saw slight direct damage to DNA and clearer oxidative damage at that top dose. The treatment did not trigger notable release of immune signals. The findings stress that dose matters when judging the safety of these carbon materials.
