Nanoparticle detection and measurement in consumer products
Nanoparticle detection and measurement in consumer products
Within the nanotechnology field, the risk and safety of nanoparticles (NPs) has become a topic of increased interest worldwide and a large volume of research and regulatory work has been carried on this subject during the last four years. While most of the research work is focused on the effects on health and the environment of engineered NPs such as carbon black, titania, carbon nanotubes, etc… a close investigation of three of the popular consumer products such as household cleaning products and cosmetics has also shown that they contain NPs.

Abstract
Within the nanotechnology field, the risk and safety of nanoparticles (NPs) has become a topic of increased interest worldwide and a large volume of research and regulatory work has been carried on this subject during the last four years. While most of the research work is focused on the effects on health and the environment of engineered NPs such as carbon black, titania, carbon nanotubes, etc… a close investigation of three of the popular consumer products such as household cleaning products and cosmetics has also shown that they contain NPs.
