The development of antimicrobial materials with sustained drug release performance is of great importance. Graphene oxide (GO) is considered to be an ideal drug carrier. In this study, tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) was loaded onto polyethyleneimine-functionalized GO (PG) to fabricate TC/PG nanocomposites. The success of the fabrication was confirmed by zeta potential, TEM, FTIR, and Raman analyses. The TC/PG nanocomposites showed a controlled and sustained drug release behavior, and a pseudo s ...[more]
