Abstract

Materials possessing antimicrobial properties are of great interest for medicine. However, the  safety of the  modern materials  on ammonium compounds, silver, ions, and barium sulphate standards. Graphene  oxide is a promising candidate for biomedical research because itexhibits good antimicrobial properties with minimal cytotoxicity to human cells.The paper presents the  results of  studies of the antimicrobial activity of  graphene oxide. The antimicrobial activity of the synthesized sample in screening one gram –negative bacteria and one gram-positive bacteria and one  fungai was analyzed by using Kirby-Bauer method.The inhibition zones measurement of  pseudomonas aerogenisa and Staph aureus due to the samples  GO , RGO and Amikacin are tabulated.
