Absolutely. While nanotechnology poses certain risks, it also offers significant potential for mitigating CBRN threats:
1. Detection: Nanosensors can detect CBRN agents with high sensitivity and specificity, ensuring early warning and rapid response. 2. Decontamination: Nanoparticles can be employed to neutralize or remove hazardous substances from contaminated environments. 3. Protection: Nanomaterials can be used to develop advanced protective gear that offers superior resistance to chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear agents.
