Testing a Representative Set of Nanomaterials – The Launch of a Sponsorship Programme
04-déc.-2007
OECD’s Working Party on Manufactured Nanomaterials, has launched a “sponsorship programme” in which countries will share the testing of specific nanomaterials (MNs). Much valuable information on the safety of MNs can be derived by testing a representative set for human health and environmental safety. In launching this “sponsorship programme” the Working Party agreed a priority list of MNs for testing (based on materials which are in or close to commerce) as well as a list of endpoints for which they should be tested. The OECD will be making regular updates on this programme.

Création d’un Groupe de Travail sur les Nanomatériaux Manufacturés, 14 septembre 2006
29-sept.-2006
Le 14 septembre 2006, le Conseil de l'OCDE a donné son accord pour la création, au sein du Comité des Produits Chimiques, d’un Groupe de Travail sur les nanomatériaux manufacturés. Ce groupe traitera des aspects santé humaine et sécurité de l’environnement concernant les nanomatériaux manufacturés. La 1ère réunion de ce groupe aura lieu le 26-27 octobre à Londres. L’objectif principal de cette réunion est de se mettre d’accord sur un projet de programme de travail pour 2006-08 concernant la sécurité des nanomatériaux manufacturés, programme qui sera transmis au Comité des Produits Chimiques.
