Nanotech: Why something so small can be so dangerous

'It's green, it's clean, it's never seen - that's nanotechnology!' That exuberant motto, used by an executive at a trade group for nanotech entrepreneurs, reflects the buoyant enthusiasm for nanotechnology in some business and scientific circles. Part of the slogan is indisputably true: nanotechnology - which involves creating and manipulating common substances at the scale of the nanometer, or one billionth of a meter - is invisible to the human eye. But the rest of the motto is open for debate...

Nanotech: Tiny particles, big risks

In These Times
by Terry J. Allen

Nanotechnology, one of the fastest growing industries in history, is a major threat to human health and the environment. Or not. The fact is, when it comes to nanotech, we dont have any idea what the facts are. Nonetheless, manufacturers are rushing ahead to add inadequately tested particles, one nanometer to 100 nanometers in size, to a wide and growing array of consumer products. A nanometer is one billionth of a meter, or the length of a fingernail as it grows in a second. Manipulated at the level of atoms and molecules, these radical particles have fundamentally different physical, chemical and biological properties from the matter from which they were created. Benign materials may become toxic, while their nano-scale allows them to penetrate cells, even breaching the blood-brain barrier...

Nanotech: Tiny Particles, Big Risks

excerpt:

The nonprofit Consumers Union admonishes that "widespread, unregulated use of many nanoengineered materials will bring ... severe, irreversible, unintended consequences." Preliminary studies have linked them to DNA damage and unpredictable inflammatory and immune responses. Britain's Royal Society warns that nanotubes "are structurally similar to asbestos fibers." Rats exposed to nanoparticles have shown tumor-related effects, according to the journal Particle and Fibre Toxicology, which questions whether nanoparticles in sunscreen can cause systemic effects if absorbed through skin. Certainly, they end up in water, where early evidence suggests toxicity to fish.

1,4 Milliarden Euro für umstrittene Nanotechnologie

Starmail — 2007-09-14T21:23:00Z

EU-Kommission ist der weltweit größte öffentliche Investor in Nanotechnologie

Mit 1,4 Milliarden Euro, die für 550 "Projekte" im Bereich der Nanowissenschaften und technologien bereitgestellt wurden, bringt das sechste Forschungsrahmenprogramm der EU offenbar ein Drittel der für Nanotechnologie in Europa insgesamt verfügbaren öffentlichen Gelder auf. Nach Angaben der EU-Kommission ist die Europäische Union somit auf diesem "hochinteressanten Gebiet" der weltweit größte einzelne Geldgeber. Europa habe auf auf diesem Gebiet "anerkanntermaßen die Führungsrolle übernommen", teilte die EU-Behörde am 13. September mit. Bedeutsam sei die "strategische Bedeutung" dieses Wissenschaftsbereichs und dessen "potenziellen Beitrag" in den Bereichen Werkstofftechnik, Medizin und Elektronik. Die Europäer könnten insofern auf mehr "Lebensqualität und Wohlstand" hoffen.
