FDA guidelines include 1. Nanotechnology is a new and evolving field for both the medical device industry and the Agency. 2. At this time, FDA has not adopted nanotechnology-specific criteria to assist manufacturers in determining when a change to a device that contains nano materials or otherwise involves the application of nanotechnology rises to the level of significance that requires submission of a new 510(k). 3. For this reason, FDA recommends that manufacturers consult with the agency for any nanotechnology-related changes to devices to determine whether and how the change may affect the safety or effectiveness of the device 4. FDA plans on developing additional guidance to further explain the Agency’s thinking on this matter. Contact the appropriate review division with any questions on devices that contain nano materials or otherwise involve the application of nanotechnology. Which of these are correct:

“The skin is the largest primary defense organ in our body and comes into direct and indirect contact with many toxic agents. Possible skin exposure to nano materials can also occur during the intentional application of cosmetics and other topical drug treatments” based on this which statement is correct

Environmental considerations in nanoparticle exposure and applications includes Can nanoparticles be released into the environment following human and animal use? What methodologies would identify the nature, and quantify the extent, of nanoparticle release in the environment? What might be the environmental impact on other species (animals, fish, plants, microorganisms)?

The unique, physicochemical properties of nano materials may play a vital role in any possible toxic effects as compared to bulk materials. The size, surface area, composition, and shape are thought to be a few responsible for nanomaterial toxicity. Is this statement
