Unique identifiers play a pivotal role in several aspects of nanotechnology:
Traceability: They allow for the tracking of nanomaterials from production to disposal, ensuring accountability and transparency. Safety: Identifiers help in monitoring the exposure and potential risks associated with nanomaterials, aiding in risk assessment and management. Regulatory Compliance: They ensure that nanomaterials meet regulatory standards and guidelines set by authorities like the FDA and EPA. Research and Development: Identifiers facilitate the cataloging and study of nanomaterials, enabling reproducibility and comparison of experimental results.
