There remain many questions about nanoparticles and
occupational/environmental health and safety.  We just don't know - yet.

NIOSH seems to be the prime mover at the moment.  The sites above will
get you started.  I sat in on a teleconference yesterday called
"Nanotechnology: Waiting for OSHA."  ReeedSmith was the sponsor - the
presentation materials might be available on their website
(http://www.reedsmith.com/special_topic.cfm?cit_id=12985)

Hope this helps,
Debbie
