The European Commission invites comments on the scientific opinion on "The appropriateness of the risk assessment methodology in accordance with the technical guidance documents for new and existing substances for assessing the risks of nanomaterials," by the Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks (SCENIHR). SCENIHR has evaluated the current technical guidance documents for risk assessment of products where nanomaterials can be applied. The methodologies for assessing the hazards for human health are generally likely to be sufficient, but the measure of the dose should take into account particle size and number as well as mass.
