Graphene (/ËÉ¡rÃ¦f.iËn/) is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a two-dimensional, atomic-scale, hexagonal lattice in which one atom forms each vertex. It is the basic structural element of other allotropes, including graphite, charcoal, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes.
Proton pump inhibitors are a type of acid reducer that helps to decrease levels of acid in your stomach. They work by causing your body to make less stomach acid.
