Abstract:
Graphene alone, in modified form or its composites had find their explicit position in the field of adsorption technology and hence assist in detection and removal of heavy metals like Cd (permissible limit 0.1 mg/L), which can cause various physiological problems if entered in variety of biota. Attributed to their unique physiognomies graphene-based adsorbent had classed themselves superior as compared to other carbonaceous adsorbent like CNT's or activated carbon, etc. This assessment summarizes the validity of graphene and its composite as a superior adsorbent for decontamination of Cd from aqueous environment; in addition, this evaluation also pronounces the toxicity profile of trace graphene and necessity of regeneration of the adsorbent.

Enhanced Elimination of Poison
Antidotes serve a crucial role in counteracting the effects of poison by inhibiting enzymes responsible for producing harmful drug metabolites. In some cases, these toxic metabolites can be neutralized by endogenous cosubstrates, which are maintained at specific concentrations to prevent interaction with cellular macromolecules and subsequent cell death.
