The reports address some key question of nanomaterials safety like: “what is nanotoxicology?”, “are current protective measures adequate for nanomaterials?”, “have nanopowders have a higher explosion risk?”. There are eight reports available. The reports are short and easy to understand even by a non-specialised audience.
NANOSAFE2
The aim of NANOSAFE2 is to develop risk assessment and management for secure industrial production of nanoparticles. In NANOSAFE2 two different types of risks will be assessed: exposure during manufacturing processes (occupational exposure) and human health due to nanomaterial exposure. The risk assessments in the project will estimate whether and/or how much damage or injury can be expected from exposures to a given risk agent, and to assist in determining whether these effects are significant enough to require action (modification of production systems, regulations, etc.).
