mynano, nanosafety assessment for industry
Nanotechnologies intend to shape the present and future of humanity. Energy production and storage, water supply, transportation, building, telecommunication, cosmetics and medicine are already taking advantage of the radically different properties of well-known materials at the nanoscale. ISO/IEC/NIST/OECD jointly state that “nanotechnology presents opportunities to create new and better products. It also has the potential to improve assessment, management, and prevention of environmental risks. However, there are unanswered questions about the impacts of nanomaterials and nanoproducts on human health and the environment.” mynano will integrate nanomedicine skills in safety assessment procedures and contribute to establishing a much needed standard in ensuring traceability & safety along the manufacturing/supply chain to consumers, from raw nanomaterials to nano-enabled products, from sunscreens to portable batteries, tires, paints and electronics.
