Sunscreens containing metal oxide nanoparticles appear transparent on the skin and
provide excellent protection against sunburn caused by UV radiation. While it is likely that …

Risk, associated with nanomaterial use, is determined by exposure and hazard potential of
these materials. Both topics cannot be evaluated absolutely independently. Realistic dose …

Nanotechnology presents the possibility of revolutionizing many aspects of our lives. People
in many settings (academic, small and large industrial, and the general public in …

In potential nano-objects can be released into the workplace air during production, during
the handling of nanopowders and during the treatment of end-products that contain …

As workplace air measurements of manufactured nanoparticles are relatively expensive to
conduct, models can be helpful for a first tier assessment of exposure. A conceptual model …

In the past few years, an increasing number of studies on workplace air measurements on
manufactured nano-materials and-objects have been published. Most of the studies had a …

Nanocomposite materials may be considered as a low-risk application of nanotechnology, if
the nanofillers remain embedded throughout the life-cycle of the products in which they are …

Abstract Background: Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) have a large economic impact in a
range of fields, but the concerns about health and safety of occupational activities involving …

ABSTRACTCarbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been a popular material in recent years, but
their thermal characteristics have not been understood completely. We investigated the …

Hazard studies of" as-produced" nanomaterials are increasingly available, yet a critical gap
exists in exposure science that may impede safe development of nanomaterials. The gap is …
