AB  - Stabilization of colloids is of great significance in nanoscience for their 
      fundamental research and practical applications. Electrostatic 
      repulsion-stabilized anisotropic colloids, such as graphene oxide (GO), can form 
      stable liquid crystals (LCs). However, the electrostatic field would be screened 
      by ions. To stabilize colloidal LCs against electrolyte is an unsolved challenge. 
      Here, an effective strategy is proposed to stabilize GO LCs under harsh 
      conditions by association of polyelectrolytes onto GO sheets. Using sodium 
      poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) and 
      poly[2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyl-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium hydroxide 
      (PMEDSAH), a kind of polyzwitterion, GO LCs were well-maintained in the presence 
      of NaCl (from 0 M to saturated), extreme pH (from 1 to 13), and serum. Moreover, 
      PSS- or PMEDSAH-coated chemically reduced GO (rGO) also showed stability against 
      electrolyte.
