Graphene oxide has attracted widespread attention in the biomedical fields due to its excellent biocompatibility. Herein we investigated the layer-number dependent antibacterial and osteogenic behaviors of graphene oxide in biointerfaces. Graphene oxide with different layer numbers was deposited on the titanium surfaces by cathodal electrophoretic deposition with varied deposition voltages. The initial cell adhesion and spreading, cell proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation were observed from all the samples using rat bone mesenchymal stem cells. Both Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus were used to investigate the antibacterial effect of the modified titanium surfaces. Cocultures of human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) cells with Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were conducted to simulate the conditions of the clinical practice. The results show that the titanium surfaces with graphene oxide exhibited excellent antibacterial and osteogenic effects. Increasing the layer-number of graphene oxide resulted in the augment of reactive oxygen species levels and the wrinkling, which antibacterial and osteogenic effects, respectively. Compared to pure titanium surface in the cells-bacteria coculture process, the modified titanium surfaces with graphene oxide exhibited higher surface coverage percentage of cells.
