Review of Safety Practices in the Nanotechnology Industry

In this Phase One report, global efforts to document current practices (e.g., 'best practices') and to establish risk assessment frameworks are compiled and summarized. The reviewed efforts are critically evaluated for their approaches, completeness and foci. They are then compared to the efforts planned by the UCSB team for Phase Two of this project, and recommendations are made, where necessary, for the latter.
