Projects

Industrially produced nanoparticles offer potential for a wide range of products. Further research regarding the impacts of nanoparticles on people and the environment is needed. The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research funds projects like NanoCare, INOS, TRACER and CarboSafe together with industry to fill knowledge gaps and to initiate measures to identify and minimize risk. The goal of these projects is to find methods for an early assessment of the impact of nanoparticles on human health and the environment.
