Legislation addressing environmental, health and safety aspects of nanomaterials in consumer products and ensuring their safe use is being continuously updated in the European Union and globally. This leads to a growing need for tools to implement this developing legislation. A freely accessible inventory of ready-to-use and publicly available tools that together cover the tasks within a nanomaterial safety assessment process was built in the presented work. This inventory is a unique metadata set in Excel® format: the ‘NANoREG Toolbox’, which assembles information needed for selecting and accessing instruments that meet specific goals. The recorded tools are categorised according to their purpose, type and regulatory status. The Toolbox covers an unprecedented and broad range of over 500 current tools, developed in Europe and beyond. While NANoREG focussed on safety assessment under the EU Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), the instruments in the Toolbox are relevant and useful for nanomaterial safety assessments worldwide.

用于纳米材料安全评估的现成可用的公开工具清单


欧盟和全球不断更新涉及消费品中纳米材料的环境、健康和安全问题并确保其安全使用的立法。这导致对实施这一发展中立法的工具的需求不断增长。在所提出的工作中，建立了一个可免费访问的现成可用和公开可用的工具清单，这些工具共同涵盖了纳米材料安全评估过程中的任务。该清单是 Excel® 格式的独特元数据集：“NANoREG 工具箱”，它汇集了选择和访问满足特定目标的仪器所需的信息。记录的工具根据其用途、类型和监管状态进行分类。工具箱涵盖了欧洲及其他地区开发的 500 多种当前工具，范围前所未有，范围广泛。虽然 NANoREG 专注于欧盟化学品注册、评估、授权和限制法规 (REACH) 下的安全评估，但工具箱中的工具对于全球纳米材料安全评估而言是相关且有用的。
