摘要：

Polylactic acid (PLA)-graphene nanocomposites have attracted significant attention in the biomedical field because of their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and excellent mechanical properties. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the recent developments in the biomedical applications of PLA/graphene nanocomposites. The discussed applications include tissue engineering, drug delivery, biomedical imaging and sensing, antimicrobial and anticancer treatments, and photothermal and photodynamic therapies. The properties and synthesis of these nanocomposites are also addressed. This review shows that although significant advancements have been made in the development of biomedical applications for PLA/graphene nanocomposites, further research is still required to overcome the existing challenges and limitations, such as improving biocompatibility and biodegradability and optimizing synthesis and processing methods. Despite these challenges, the potential of PLA/graphene nanocomposites in the biomedical field is significant and holds promise for future advancements. Graphene-containing polylactic acid nanocomposites have gained significant attention in the biomedical field due to their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and excellent mechanical properties. This review reports the latest advancements in the biomedical use of PLA/graphene-based nanocomposites, focusing on drug delivery, biosensing, and tissue regeneration. image
