Abstract
The bio-inspired synthesis of organic and inorganic nanomaterials has gained significant attention for creating hierarchical structures. Blending these materials enhances nanocomposite membranes for filtration and sensing, with elements like Co2+ and Mn2+ improving their properties. Many organisms, such as mollusks and sponges, naturally produce organic-inorganic composites through biomineralization. Biomolecules—proteins, peptides, DNA, RNA, and polysaccharides—guide nucleation, stabilization, and assembly of inorganic frameworks. Proteins aid in forming organized nanostructures, while peptides offer customizable designs for tissue engineering and nanotechnology. Doping is widely used to tailor nanoparticles' electrical, optical, and morphological properties. Doped nanomaterials, like Ag-N-TiO2 and ZnO composites, exhibit antimicrobial efficacy, while co-doping strategies further enhance microbial inhibition. This review explores biomolecules' synergistic role in nanotechnology for sustainable, multifunctional materials in industry and biomedicine.
