Nanoparticles are particles with at least one dimension in the range of 1–100 nanometres (nm).
The greatest health risk of nanoparticles to humans is through inhaling them.
Due to limited information on the effects of nanomaterials, the same personal protective equipment is currently recommended as for gases and aerosols.
