Study suggests nanoparticles cross into the placenta
A team of UK researchers have used an in vitro model to show that nanoparticles may be able to cross into the placenta. The research team, led by Margaret Saunders at St Michael’s Hospital in Bristol, UK, investigated a range of iron oxide and silica nanoparticles and...GreenScreen™ hazard assessment of silver and nanosilver demonstrates what we know, what we don’t, and what we’d like to know before we get too cozy with nanomaterials
Although there have been numerous published reports and reviews of the hazards of nanosilver and other nanomaterials, the results of this project, using GreenScreen™ established methods, are to our knowledge the most comprehensive systematic hazard screen of...Senate Inquiry calls for urgent action to tackle superbugs
Friends of the Earth have called for the Federal Government to urgently implement the recommendations of a Senate Inquiry into the growing problem of antimicrobial resistance released late last week. The inquiry recommended the establishment of an independent body...New study shows overuse of nano-silver could help breed superbugs
Friends of the Earth has renewed its calls for a ban on the use of nano-silver in consumer products, after a new a UNSW study has found that overexposure to silver nanoparticles can cause potentially harmful bacteria to rapidly adapt and flourish. The study, published...Crazytech
Stupid technologies we don't need.....
And that could destroy life on Earth.
