Abstract

Graphene based nanomaterials have attracted tremendous attention for their potential applications in various fields. In the present investigation, the growth of graphene on silicon substrate using thermal chemical vapor deposition (Thermal-CVD) method has been reported and the biocompatibility of obtained yield has been critically assessed. Raman spectra confirm the formation of graphene which was found to be the best to obtain minimal number of layers of graphene. Three prominent peaks have been observed at approximately 1360cm $^{- 1}$ $^{- 1}$ (D Peak), 1595cm $^{- 1}$ $^{- 1}$ (G Peak) and 2700cm $^{- 1}$ $^{- 1}$ (2D Peak). Haemolysis test and simulated body fluid (SBF) test are performed to check the biocompatibility of the synthesized graphene samples. Atomic force micrographs of the samples are taken prior and after soaking them in SBF solution to study their interaction with the fluid. Haemolysis percentage is determined using UV-Vis to determine the hemocompatible nature of the samples. The results of haemolysis and SBF test demonstrated that Thermal-CVD grown graphene samples are biocompatible.
