The article presents a study which discussed the effective risk assessment of nanomaterials.
According to the authors, nanotechnology and the use of nanoscale materials is a relatively …

Present knowledge concerning the ecotoxic effects of nano‐materials is very limited and
merits to be documented more fully. For this purpose, we appraised the toxicity of nine …

Regulatory ecotoxicity testing of chemicals is of societal importance and a large effort is
undertaken at the OECD to ensure that OECD test guidelines (TGs) for nanomaterials (NMs) …

The increasing production and use of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) inevitably results in
their higher concentrations in the environment. This may lead to undesirable environmental …

Manufactured nanomaterials (NMs) are being developed in many different variations such
as size, shape, crystalline structure and surface modifications. To avoid the testing of each …
