Abstract
Graphene is considered as one of the most significant material in the field of nanotechnology since discovery as it exhibits unique physicochemical and biological properties. The biocompatible nature and favorable dimensions render them suitable for interactions with cells and tissues. When combined with various metal oxides, the intrinsic properties get enhanced resulting in synergistic effect in various applications. Graphene-based nanomaterials have gained popularity exponentially as biosensing and bioimaging agent. Moreover various current researches are exploring the potentiality of graphene nanocomposites as gene or drug carrier or as candidate for cancer therapy and tissue engineering. The chapter also deals with various researches conducted using antibacterial metal oxide-graphene nanocomposites along with the various synthesis routes followed.
