Nanopinion: Balancing Safety, Sustainability, and Innovation - Calcium Carbonate Nanoparticles in Biomedical Applications
Read the latest Nanopinion by Dr. Ester Carregal-Romero, Prof. Jesús-Cabello, and Dr. Susana Carregal-Romero where they introduce the benefits of Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) approach for nanomaterials and present applications of Calcium Carbonate in new biomedical systems.
"There is a need for a mindset change starting in the innovation phase to ensure that newly developed nanomaterials combine safety and sustainability. This undoubtedly applies to the industry and R&D of nanomaterials for biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, new contrast agents, theranostic nanoprobes, and regenerative nanomedicines."
Background
The EUON Nanopinion is a platform where different contributors ranging from policymakers and authorities to industry and civil society such as NGOs and researchers, share their views on their work and priorities related to nanomaterials in the EU.
