Abstract
In nanomedicine development, one of the essential components is the selection of biomaterial, which significantly controls the resulting biological reactions. The study of carbon and graphene-based nanomaterials has found a prominent place in medical science and technologies. Such amazing nanomaterials show efficient drug loading capacity, lack of immunogenicity, biocompatibility due to unique properties, such as large surface area, spectacular optical properties etc. Over the years, various advances on the surface functionality of these nanomaterials have been processed to reduce their health concerns and enhance their biosafety. This chapter begins with an introduction to carbon-based materials. Then it covers the potential of carbon and graphite-based nanomaterials in biomedical, including the delivery of medicine, biosensing, and cancer therapy. In addition, toxicity concerns related to nanomaterials for biomedical applications, future approaches, and current challenges are addressed.
