What Data is Required for Nano-Pesticide Registration?
For the registration of nano-pesticides, the EPA requires detailed information on the physical and chemical properties of the nanomaterials, their toxicity, and their environmental fate. This includes data on particle size, shape, surface area, and how these factors influence the behavior and toxicity of the pesticide. Additionally, the EPA may require long-term studies to understand the persistence and bioaccumulation of nano-particles in the environment.
