		<description><![CDATA[The Environmental Protection Agency is the government&#8217;s best hope for protection against the hazards of nanomaterial, but an internal investigation says it can&#8217;t protect the public from these sub-atomic creations. In a report issued last week, EPA&#8217;s Office of Inspector General said the agency has the statutory authority to regulate nanomaterials but currently lacks the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cutting edge nanoscience has put an end to the icky white coating of old sunscreens that that prevented the sun from harming your skin. But scientists for consumer and environmental groups say that while nanosized sun-blocking ingredients like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide now rub on clear instead of white, very few of the engineered [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One might think that a food-shipping container coated with nanoparticles that have been proven to destroy bacteria causing illness and death would be a coveted innovation. Apparently not so. William Norwood, president of nanoAgri Systems, said the Environmental Protection Agency told him that he wasn’t permitted to market his company’s new nanosilver, antibacterial packaging. “This [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For centuries, silver has been used for its ability to destroy bacteria — from ancient Romans treating their water with silver coins to NASA using the metal to purify water aboard the Space shuttle. Four decades ago, silver nitrate became one of the most effective treatments for fighting infection in serious burns. While silver’s antibacterial [...]]]></description>

The fact that the study is actually examining the health implications has been widely praised as needed, but the methodology used by the study's authors has been denounced by others in the field.]]></description>
