Summary:
Handbook of Nanosafety: Measurement, Exposure and Toxicology provides a comprehensive understanding of engineered nanomaterials (ENM), current international nanosafety regulation, and how ENM can be safely handled in the workplace. Increasingly, the importance of safety needs to be considered when promoting the use of novel technologies like ENM. With its use of case studies and exposure scenarios, this handbook demonstrates techniques to assess exposure and risks, and how these assessments can be applied to improve workers' safety. Topics covered include the effects of ENM on human health, characterization of ENM, aerosol dynamics and measurement, exposure and risk assessment, and safe handling of ENM. Based on outcomes from the nanodevice initiative, this is an essential resource for those who need to apply current nanotoxicological thinking in the workplace and anyone who advises on nanosafety, such as professionals in toxicology, occupational safety and risk assessment. Key Features, Written by leading researchers in the field of nanosafety. Features state-of-the-art physical and chemical characterization of engineered nanomaterials (ENM), Develops strategies for Exposure Assessment, Risk Assessment and Risk Management, Includes practical case studies and exposure scenarios to demonstrate how you can safely use ENM in the workplace Book jacket.
