Culture media critically influence graphene oxide effects on plasma membranes
In their article, ‘‘Graphene Oxide Nanosheets Stimulate Ruffling and Shedding of Mammalian Cell Plasma Membranes,’’ Sun et al. described how the early-stage interaction between graphene oxide (GO) flakes and rat basophilic leukemia (RBL) cells perturbed their plasma membrane without causing cytotoxicity.
