“…Additionally, direct contact of GO with bacteria can activate mechanisms such as nano-knife ( Sun et al, 2020 ), encapsulation or capture ( Du et al, 2022 ), oxidative stress ( Liu et al, 2011 ), and has an evident antibacterial effect on both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria ( Pulingam et al, 2019 ) . However, the inhibitory ability of GO to planktonic bacteria around the implant is limited ( Pandit et al, 2023 ). Furthermore, the antibacterial activity of GO is concentration-dependent, meaning that at high concentrations, GO may induce biotoxicity.…”
