  • Graphene has captured attention worldwide, with many scientists dubbing it a "wonder material" with potential to have a huge impact on humans

The article from Earth.com discusses the safety assessment of graphene, a material known for its exceptional properties like strength, conductivity, and flexibility, which has led to its widespread application in various industries. The European Union's Graphene Flagship project has conducted extensive research and has now officially declared graphene safe for human use. This declaration comes after rigorous testing for potential toxicity, where graphene was found not to cause significant harm to human cells or tissues. The findings are pivotal as they pave the way for graphene's integration into consumer products, medical applications, and environmental solutions without the previous concerns about its safety. This safety endorsement is expected to accelerate the adoption of graphene in new technologies, potentially revolutionizing fields like electronics, energy storage, and healthcare.
