Graphene Could Enter the Body on Top of a Stable Lipid Monolayer

Researchers have, for the first time, succeeded in placing a graphene layer on top of a firm fatty lipid monolayer. Graphene, surrounded by a protective shell of lipids, could enter the body and work as a versatile sensor. The findings, recently published in Nanoscale, are the initial steps towards such a shell.
