INGested nanomaterials and metal MIXtures in food: developing integrated strategies to support human health risk assessment and regulatory frameworks (MixIng Tox)
Local CoordinatorFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
MOTIVATION: Dietary exposure has been considered part of the exposome, therefore food safety is essential for individual and public health. Unquestionably, it is necessary to assure that preventive mechanisms are available to the scientific community and regulators, that rapidly respond to emergent needs of safety assurance of, for example, the...Providing solutions for water treatment and recovering of technological critical elements: from ‘the wonder material’ to new chemobrionics systems (GraphChem)
