摘要

Manmade or engineered nanomaterials, usually defined as being under 100 nanometer in one dimension, are increasingly appearing in our environment and our daily consumer products. They are made in all kinds of shapes and materials. A nanotube, for example, can have a diameter of 1 nanometer, which is 100,000 times smaller than the diameter of a hair. Over 1000 consumer products already contain nanomaterials, such as textiles, food items, cosmetics, electronics, optics, as well as coatings for facadesand cars. In discussion is also the use of nanomaterials in medical devices, treatments and diagnostics, as well as for soil and water remediation. Akin to the promises of stem cell technologies to revolutionize our concept of human health and life, nanotechnology holds great promises for the future. Fueled by government and industry funding, nanotechnology enabled products emerge at an increasing pace in the marketplace, with a forecast market share of around 1 trillion US dollars by 2015. However, aswith all great human 'inventions' that leapfrogged the development of human kind, there is also a potential for harm.
