“…15 Inspired by the composition of adhesive proteins in mussels, Lee and co-workers 16,17 have shown that dopamine (DA) through the self-polymerization process can form thin, surface-adherent polydopamine films (PDA) 18,19 onto a wide range of inorganic and organic materials, including noble metals, oxides, polymers, semiconductors, and ceramics. [20][21][22][23][24][25][26] On the other hand, carbon-based nanomaterials are one of the most widely discussed, researched and applied synthetic nanomaterials, due to their diverse capabilities, such as excellent electronic, magnetic and optical properties. At the same time, their chemical versatility allows them to be easily manipulated in laboratory and industrial environments, to be biocompatible and to be considered as a chemically robust platform.…”
