Risk assessment of nanoparticles
Do you have questions or concerns regarding the potential health or environmental risks caused by engineered nanoparticles?
Nanotechnology offers widespread opportunities for the development of new materials and products. However, nanomaterials also raise concerns of possible risks to human health and the environment. TNO Triskelion participates in various projects regarding nanomaterial hazard, exposure and legislation. We convert our up-to-date multi-disciplinary knowledge on toxicology and environmental, employee and consumer exposure knowledge into practical and usable recommendations for trade organisations, the chemical industry and SMEs.
