7. Mistakes to avoid
7.1 Don't settle for a granulometric measurement that stops at the honeycomb fraction (4 or 5 µm).
You need to determine the fraction starting at 0.1 microns (100 nm).
SCROLL TO TOP7.2 Do not systematically use physicochemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological data from the macro- and micrometer-sized powder fraction for the nanoparticulate fraction.
You need to be sure that they are not specific to the nanoparticle fraction and do not lead to different biological reactions.
