 +Please refer to the published work in the journal ‘Nanoscale’ entitled: “Functionalized graphene oxide serves as a novel vaccine nano-adjuvant for robust stimulation of cellular immunity”. 
 +
 +This work was published in 2016 by a group in China and let me tell you, they did a lot of work and asked a lot of questions. Their methods are so good, that I could actually reproduce their work.
 +
 +Their primary goal was to find out if their adjuvant antigen delivery system, graphene oxide-polyethylene glycol-polyethylenimine ([[:GO-PEG-PE]]I), would be functional with regard to specific immune stimulation, and/or less toxic than aluminum-based adjuvants. 
 +
 +Their results showed that a PEG-PEI coated graphene oxide sheet - which incidentally really loves absorbing antigens like Ure B (an antigen associated with a bacterium called Helicobacter pylori) - was really good at trafficking antigen to dendritic cells to induce their maturation and activation when this concoction was injected intradermally. 
 +
 +What I really need to get my hands on are the original methods… this isn’t even locatable using sci-hub. Anyone crafty enough to get this paper? I have the supplementary materials but not the text and will not be providing personal details to ‘sign up’ for anything to read science. It’s against my code
 +
 +Summary of paper translated into english: PEG-PEI-conjugated GO sheets used as adjuvants to deliver immune-stimulating agents like bacterial proteins, are a thing.
