The widespread utilization of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in a variety of sectors in recent years has raised concerns regarding possible health effects, especially for vulnerable groups like neonates. The increase in nanotechnology and the capacity to create new nanomaterials have resulted in a rise in the creation and application of ENPs. The field of study into the potential hazardous effects of nanoparticles (NPs) on human health and the environment is in its early stages, despite the fact that nanotechnology and NP production are expanding rapidly. This review will systematically examine the potential exposure of babies to ENPs via respiratory routes, including their sources, kinds, and amounts. To accurately comprehend the nanoparticles' physicochemical characteristics and any toxicological impacts, we will use nano-specific analytical methods for detection and characterization. Toxicological consequences that may arise from nanomaterials must be well characterized. It is also essential to comprehend surface processes that occur on nanoparticles when they come into contact with living things. Directed and specific investigations are required to evaluate real exposure levels and identify harmful health implications in babies and children as the manufacture and usage of ENPs become more prevalent. Future developments will involve the inhalation of ENPs in newborns hold great promise for improving respiratory health and preventing illnesses in this susceptible group. |
