Millions of graphene toothbrushes sold worldwide: Scientists reveal why people are buying them

New research from KAIST has clarified how graphene oxide's antibacterial properties work, revealing it selectively attacks harmful bacteria by targeting a specific lipid found in their membranes. This mechanism explains the success of graphene-based hygiene products and offers a novel approach to combating antibiotic resistance by physically disrupting bacterial structures.
