Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj2b2vs7nb" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />Liposome-induced exfoliation of graphite allowed to obtain few-layer graphene homogeneous in size and hydrophilic due to the non-covalent functionalization with phospholipids. The corresponding dispersions are stable for 48 h and demonstrate antimicrobial activity.</p> </abstract>
