| Sumario: | The chapter presents the outcomes of an extensive investigation of nanosafety concerning various nanocomposites incorporating doped nanoparticles. These findings unveil a diverse range of properties these materials exhibit, including enhanced biocompatibility, unique optical and electronic features, and targeted therapeutic capabilities. Nonetheless, the study underscores the necessity for a cautious approach due to the intricate interactions between doped nanomaterials and biological systems. Optimizing these beneficial properties and mitigating potential risks associated with their utilization necessitate meticulous synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of hybrid nanocomposites. Depending on the dopant used, it has bactericidal advantages but toxic effects, so studying which doping element is essential for developing new efficient and safe products. Therefore, the significance of interdisciplinary collaboration among researchers from diverse fields such as materials science, biology, medicine, and toxicology is emphasized for a comprehensive assessment of the safety and efficacy of these nanomaterials across various applications. |
