Qualitative survey conc. "Nanotechnology: Safety and Health" |
|
Nanotechnologies open up hitherto unimaginable possibilities whose repercussions cannot yet be estimated, even in approximate terms. The expectations for this technology are huge. Possible effects on living organisms, in particular on human health, represent an Achilles heel of nanotechnologies and require more intensive research.
