What are the Key Challenges in Regulating Nanomaterials?

Regulating nanomaterials presents several challenges due to their unique characteristics:
- Characterization: Accurately defining and measuring the properties of nanomaterials, such as size, shape, and surface chemistry.
- Risk Assessment: Developing reliable methods to assess the toxicity and environmental impact of nanomaterials.
- Standardization: Establishing standardized testing protocols and regulatory guidelines that can be universally applied.
- Data Availability: Limited data on the long-term effects of nanomaterials on health and the environment.
