Problems solved by technology

However, polyethyleneimine-functionalized graphene obtained by physical adsorption method is unstable and precipitates in brine
Although it is stable when linked to graphene oxide through covalent bonds, its stability is still seriously affected by the charge properties of the solution after being mixed with DNA plasmids. The transfection process is greatly affected by the operation method and reagent dosage, and there is still a certain toxicity
In addition, the gene transfection process is only controlled by the cationic polymer, and its transfection efficiency is still limited, especially for non-tumor cells.

Description

[0001] Technical field: the present invention relates to a multifunctional nanomaterial and its preparation method, especially a multifunctional graphene gene transfection reagent and its preparation method Background technique: [0002] The gene transfection process is a process in which eukaryotic cells obtain new genetic markers due to the incorporation of foreign DNA. Gene transfection technology is not only an important tool for studying transgene and gene expression, but also a key step in gene therapy. At present, the main gene transfection reagents are viral transfection reagents and synthetic transfection reagents. Viral transfection reagents have limited gene carrying capacity, lack of targeting, and are dangerous to operate (Putnam, D. Nat Mater 5, 439-451, 2006), so people tend to use synthetic gene transfection reagents. At present, synthetic gene transfection reagents are mainly cationic liposomes, cationic peptides and cationic polymers, or complexes of the abo...
