The OECD Working Party on Manufactured Nanomaterials (WPMN) has recently published several new reports in its Series on the Safety of Manufactured Nanomaterials, focusing on physico-chemical properties of nanomaterials, categorisation and group/read-across approaches as well as an evaluation of existing methods applied in the OECD-WPMN testing programme.
NEW OECD WPMN Reports in 2016
- No. 66 - Categorisation of manufactured nanomaterials
- No. 65 - Physical-chemical properties of nanomaterials: Evaluation of methods applied in the OECD-WPMN testing programme
- No. 64 - Approaches on nano grouping/ equivalence/ read-across concepts based on physical-chemical properties (GERA-PC) for regulatory regimes
- No. 63 - Physical-chemical parameters: measurements and methods relevant for the regulation of nanomaterials
A full list of publications in the Series on the Safety of Manufactured Nanomaterials is available on the OECD WPMN website via http://www.oecd.org/env/ehs/nanosafety/publications-series-safety-manufactured-nanomaterials.htm.

Nano-safety - topic of the future
In October we would like to present the special issue "Future Nanosafety" published in "Chemical Research in Toxicology".
In 17 articles operation procedures for future test methods, alternatives for animal testing, safe-by-design processes and detection methods of nanoparticles are presented.
