Mehmet Onur Aydoğdu and Meltem Nur Erdöl from their graduate students have synthesized Nano-Graphene Oxide and produced Nano-Biocomposite materials with high biocompatibility and high electrical properties.

Nano-graphene oxide used in the study was synthesized within the scope of the study and all the engineering steps from raw materials to the final product were made by the researchers involved in the study and produced Functional Nano-Biocomposite material. In this way, produced tissue skeletons have managed to be able to hold  high biocompatibility and electrical conductivity together. In order to reveal the morphological, mechanical, chemical and physical properties of the produced tissue skeletons, they were examined in detail. The results show that high electrical properties and cell harmony are seen together and a good and pioneering research has been carried out in the field. Our study has taken place in the world literature as an interdisciplinary work as beingis a joint study between the fields of material engineering, electrical and electronic engineering and biomedical engineering, and also with the partnership of the  Dr. Chi-Chang Lin, a partner from Taiwan. While the results will undoubtedly be an example of other studies that will come after them, they will be carried out quickly by obtaining the necessary permits for animal tests to examine the intracellular behavior of the tissue skeletons produced in the next step.

It has been accepted to be published by the Elsevier publishing house, in the prestigious and popular magazine called Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces.

The work is named ‘’Novel Electrospun Polycaprolactone / Graphene Oxide / Fe3O4 Nanocomposites for Biomedical Applications’’ by authors: Mehmet Onur Aydogdu, Nazmi Ekren, Mediha Suleymanoglu, Serap Erdem-Kuruca, Chi-Chang Line Kemalettin Terzi, Osman Kilic, Oguzhan Gunduz.

We congratulate the Nanotechnology and Biomaterials Application and Research Center employees and students and wish them a continued success.
