nano risk framework

How Does the Framework Work?


The Nano Risk Framework is built around six key steps:
Describe the Material and its Applications: This involves detailed characterization of the nanomaterial, including its physical and chemical properties, as well as intended uses.
Profile Lifecycle Properties: Analyzing the nanomaterial's lifecycle, from production to disposal, helps identify potential points of exposure.
Evaluate Risks: This step involves assessing toxicity and exposure data to determine potential health and environmental impacts.
Assess Risk Management Options: Identifying ways to mitigate risks, such as through engineering controls, personal protective equipment, or regulatory measures.
Decide, Document, and Act: Making informed decisions based on the risk assessment, documenting the process, and implementing risk management strategies.
Review and Adapt: Continuous monitoring and reassessment to adapt to new information and changing circumstances.
