Ergonomic Challenges for Nanotechnology Safety and Health Practices

Nanotechnology has been broadly introduced to a wide range of industry fields such as aeronautics, agriculture, architectural design, bio-medical engineering, communication sciences, constructions, environmental science, food production, and information technology over the last decades. Nanotechnology has the perspective to radically advance the efficiency of current industries and industrial products and considerable effects on the development of new products in all areas, ranging from disease diagnosis and treatment to environmental remediation. Now, nanotechnologies and nano materials are familiar terminologies and commonly applied to the field of industry designs.

Nanotechnology Safety
Although nanotechnology-based and nano material-based products are generally accepted at the pre competitive stage, an increasing number of products and materials are becoming commercially available. These include Nano scale powders, solutions, and suspensions of Nano scale materials as well as composite materials and devices having nano structures. Nano scale products and materials are also increasingly applied to a number of areas such as optoelectronic, electronic, magnetic, medical imaging, drug delivery, cosmetic, catalytic, and materials applications.
