Ensuring safety in nanotechnology involves adhering to best practices, including:
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Using appropriate PPE, such as gloves and masks, to prevent exposure. Engineering Controls: Implementing ventilation systems and containment strategies in laboratories and workplaces. Training and Education: Providing comprehensive training to personnel on the safe handling and disposal of nanomaterials. Environmental Monitoring: Continuously monitoring the environment for potential contamination by nanomaterials.
