Hazard assessments of manufactured nanomaterials.
BACKGROUND It has been difficult to make reliable hazard assessments of manufactured nanomaterials, because the nanomaterials form large agglomerations in both in vitro and in vivo studies. OBJECTIVE In the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) Project of Japan, the physicochemical properties of many manufactured nanomaterials are being measured, and in vitro an...
متن کاملLimited Usefulness of In Vitro Toxicity Data in Hazard Identification of Nanomaterials
With the increasing use and development of engineered nanomaterials in electronics, pesticides, consumer products, and chemical and pharmaceutical industries, there is a growing concern about their potential risks to humans and the environment. The toxic effects of most nanomaterials have not been characterized, but it is generally believed that nanoparticles can have toxicological properties t...
متن کاملHazard Identification
T. Bredfeldt Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, MC-168, P.O Box 13087, Austin, TX 78711-3087, USA e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Hazard identification is considered an early step in the risk assessment process. The primary goal of this step is to determine whether exposure to a chemical is likely to cause a specific adverse health effect in humans. The process of hazard ide...
متن کاملIdentification of Moral Hazard in the Banking System of Iran
The presence of moral hazard in the banking sector can have worrying results. This paper examines the role of government guarantees to banks in generating moral hazard in Iran. We test for moral hazard among bank creditors by determining whether protected banks received more funds from creditors than non-protected banks. Empirically, to determine the existence of moral hazard among bank manag...
متن کاملHazard Screening Methods for Nanomaterials: A Comparative Study
Hazard identification is the key step in risk assessment and management of manufactured nanomaterials (NM). However, the rapid commercialisation of nano-enabled products continues to out-pace the development of a prudent risk management mechanism that is widely accepted by the scientific community and enforced by regulators. However, a growing body of academic literature is developing promising...
