Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) reinforced Mg biocomposites for use as orthopedic applications: Mechanical properties, cytocompatibility and antibacterial activity

Magnesium (Mg) has attracted wide interest in orthopedic applications as they exhibit great biodegradability and strong biocompatibility, while corrosion is the main concern for Mg that should be addressed prior to biomedical applications. In this work, ZM31 (Mg-3Zn-1Mn)/xRGO (x = 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5...
