Managing Risks of Nanoparticles (MARINA)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,

While there are standard procedures for product life cycle analysis, exposure, hazard, and risk assessment for traditional chemicals, is not yet clear how these procedures need to be modified to address all the novel properties of nanomaterials. There is a need to develop specific reference methods for all the main steps in managing the potential risk of ENM. The aim of MARINA is to develop such ...

Modelling nanoparticle toxicity: principles, methods, novel approaches (ModNanoTox)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2013,

ModNanoTox will develop a number of well-documented and technically advanced models describing the behaviour of engineered nanoparticles in organisms and the environment. Background to these models will be a thoroughly documented database, constructed based on: (1) an advanced evaluation of physicochemical properties of nanoparticles and in silico modelling of their reactivity; and (2) assessment ...

Life Cycle of Nanoparticle-based Products used in House Coating (NANOHOUSE)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2013,

NanoHOUSE intends to create a holistic and prospective view on the Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) impacts of nanoproducts used in house building, namely paints and coatings. The latter are using relatively high amounts of Engineered NanoParticles (ENPs) such as nano-Ag and nano-TiO2 which will be investigated. A new Life Cycle Thinking (LCT) approach will be developed gathering two compleme ...

Air Quality Monitoring Technologies for Urban Areas (AirMonTech)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mai 2013,

With increasing requirements for air pollution monitoring in Europe, and a rising number and complexity of available instruments, harmonisation and innovation of air pollution monitoring in Europe is of vital importance. In the short term, harmonisation is needed to ensure comparability of measured concentrations, and their estimated measurement uncertainties, provided by European air pollution mo ...

Magnetic Scaffolds for in vivo Tissue Engineering (MAGISTER)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2008, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,

The main driving idea of the project is the creation of conceptually new type of scaffolds able to be manipulated in situ by means of magnetic forces. This approach is expected to generate scaffolds with such characteristics as multiple use and possibly multipurpose delivery in order to repair large bone defects and ostheocondral lesions in the articular surface of the skeletal system. The major ...

European Network on the Health and Environmental Impact of Nanomaterials (NanoImpactNet)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,

Recent technological advances allow the targeted production of objects and materials in the nanoscale (smaller than 100 nm). Nanomaterials have chemical, physical and bioactive characteristics, which are different from those of larger entities of the same materials. Nanoparticles can pass through body barriers. This is interesting for medical applications, but it raises concerns about their health ...

Development of Exposure Scenarios for Manufactured Nanomaterials (NANEX)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2010,

Nanotechnology is a fast growing industry producing a wide variety of manufactured nanomaterials (MNMs) and numerous potential applications. Consequently, the potential for exposure to humans and the environment is likely to increase. Human exposure to MNMs and environmental release of these materials can occur during all the life cycle stages of these materials. For each stage of the life cycle o ...
