Abstract
Recent research has shown that graphene as a novel "green" antibacterial material possess excellent antibacterial properties with no risk of bacterial resistance for daily life due to its physical damage-based bactericidal mechanism. Therefore, an increasing amount of research has been focused towards evaluating the antibacterial effects of graphene and graphene-based hybrid materials. In this chapter, we reviewed the antibacterial activity and mechanism of graphene-based nanomaterials and highlighted the importance of size, morphology, and composites in the application of antibacterial materials development. Finally, we made a summary and outlook on this research field.Entities:
