Biocompatible N-acetyl cysteine reduces graphene oxide and persists at the surface as a green radical scavenger.

Palmieri V, Dalchiele EA, Perini G, Motta A, De Spirito M, Zanoni R, Marrani AG, Papi M

We demonstrate that N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) reduces graphene oxide (GO) at room temperature. This represents a new green method to produce reduced GO (rGO). NAC adheres to the rGO surface as demonstrated by several spectroscopy techniques and avoids GO-mediated oxidation of glutathione. This method offers new opportunities for the production of green biocompatible rGO and NAC-based therapies.
