| Summary: |
A report has been published by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland as an overview of current and potential applications of nanotechnology in the food industry, which may equally be applied in the feed industry. The possible risks of nanotechnology highlighted by the lack of knowledge about the effects of nanotechnology in the food chain, together with the adequacy of the existing EU regulatory framework in the control of any potential risks, are also examined with a view to determining what further legislative measures, if any, may be necessary to safeguard food safety. |
