The ‘Joint Risk Assessor Summit on Advancing Safety & Sustainability Assessments of Advanced Materials’ hosted by ACCORDs, iCARE, MACRAMÉ, and nanoPASS, was a full success. To address new challenges for safety and sustainability assessment coming with advanced materials, the EU Horizon Europe projects ACCORDs, iCARE, MACRAMÉ, and nanoPASS hosted the Read more
The development of new approach methodologies (NAMs) to replace current in vivo testing for the safety assessment of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) is hindered by the scarcity of validated experimental data for many ENMs. MACRAMÉ partners contributed to the publication ‘Wisdom of Crowds for Supporting the Safety Evaluation of Nanomaterials’.
MACRAMÉ colleagues from EMPA have published a study on Data-Driven Prediction of Nanoparticle Biodistribution from Physicochemical Descriptors.
MACRAMÉ colleagues from EMPA and Epithelix have published a paper entitled ‘Silicon Carbide Nanowires Impair Mucociliary Clearance-Mediated Innate Immunity in Primary Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells’. In this study, the fate of zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, and two-dimensional silicon- and carbon-based nanomaterials was investigated for the first time.
The MACRAMÉ Project team has published an Innovation Report about its Project’s R&I approach. In the paper entitled ‘MACRAMÉ – Advanced characterisation methodologies to assess and predict the health and environmental risks of advanced materials‘, the authors describe the planned information-flow between the different R&I activities conducted in the Project (see Read more
