Nanotechnology draws focus of federal regulators
Abstract:
The Food and Drug Administration said it plans an October meeting to discuss the new kinds of nanotechnology materials being developed for use in the products it regulates, including drugs, foods, cosmetics and medical devices. FDA-regulated products account for about 25 cents of every dollar spent each year by U.S. consumers.
(Ed.'s note: it has not been determined if the "Magic Nano" contains nanoscale materials. That fact not withstanding, it's good to see that Federal regulators are starting to pay attention.)
