The Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) initiated a research project called NanoGEM
(Nanostructured materials – Health, Exposure and Material Properties).
It is taking place with the involvement of 19 research institutions and
companies, among them are BASFand Bayer. The project will receive
approximately €4.9 million in BMBF funding over the next three years,
with industry to contribute around another €1.5 million. The project is
headed by the Institute for Energy and Environmental Technology (IUTA),
Duisburg, Germany.
NanoGEM which started August 1, 2010, will investigate absorption and
distribution of nanoparticles in the human body as a function of their
size, structure and surface properties. The project is the first of its
kind to evaluate industrially relevant nanoparticles and nanomaterials
in processed products and is intended to make an important contribution
to the systematic assessment of risk in association with nanomaterial
use.
