To mitigate these risks, several strategies can be employed:
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Use of gloves, masks, and other protective gear can minimize exposure. Engineering Controls: Fume hoods and ventilation systems can help contain nanoparticles. Proper Disposal: Following guidelines for the disposal of nanomaterials can prevent environmental contamination. Training and Education: Educating workers and researchers about the risks and safety protocols is essential.
