Chemical and physical modification of graphene oxide nano-sheets using casein, Zn-Al layered double hydroxide, alginate hydrogel, and magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical applications.
In our study, we developed a novel nanobiocomposite using graphene oxide (GO), casein (Cas), ZnAl layered double hydroxide (LDH), sodium alginate (Alg), and Fe3 O4 magnetic nanoparticles. To synthesize the GO, we used a modified Hummer's method and then covalently functionalized its surface with Cas protein. The functionalized GO was combined with as-synthesized ZnAl LDH, and the composite was conjugated with alginate hydrogel through the gelation process. Finally, we magnetized the nanobiocomposite using in-situ magnetization. The nanobiocomposite was comprehensively characterized using FT-IR, FE-SEM, EDX, and XRD. Its biological potential was assessed through cell viability, hemolysis, and anti-biofilm assays, as well as its application in hyperthermia. The MTT assay showed high cell viability percentages for Hu02 cells after 24, 48, and 72 h of incubation. The nanobiocomposite had a hemolytic effect lower than 3.84 %, and the measured bacterial growth inhibition percentages of E. coli and S. aureus bacteria in the presence of the nanobiocomposite were 52.18 % and 55.72 %, respectively. At a concentration of 1 mg.mL-1 and a frequency of 400 kHz, the nanocomposite exhibits a remarkable specific absorption rate (SAR) of 67.04 W.g-1 , showcasing its promising prospects in hyperthermia applications.
