Spotlight December 2020: Rethinking Nanosafety – Part II

Home > Spotlight December 2020: Rethinking Nanosafety – Part II

In December we would like to draw attention to the special issue: Rethinking Nanosafety – Part II in small.

In the July Spotlight we already presented Part I. This special issue “Rethinking Nanosafety – Part II” also features research papers by renowned scientists in the field of nanosafety research.

The first part of this special issue has been published in May 2020, the second part now in September 2020.

This special issue contains topics such as biotransformation of nanomaterials, nanomaterials as food additives or on the definition of nanomaterials.

Spotlight June 2022: From small to clever – What does the future hold for the safety and sustainability of advanced materials?

The smallest particles in materials research, nanoparticles, have occupied us intensively for more than 20 years to elucidate and further investigate their safety for humans and the environment. Now, however, the development is going from “small = nano” to “clever = advanced”, as discussed in a contribution by international scientists. Thereby, it is a great […]
