CAMACHO, Ángela et al. Definition of Nanomateriais for Colombia. Rev.Colomb.Quim. [online]. 2016, vol.45, n.1, pp.15-20. ISSN 0120-2804.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rev.colomb.quim.v45n1.58955.

Due to the increasing production and use of nanomaterials in research and development activities in Colombia, it is necessary to define the nanomaterial term in order to facilitate decision-making process regarding initiatives with a regulatory or normative character. This article presents the nanomaterials definition that has been adopted by the National Advisory Council for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, a Colombian Network of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology.

Keywords : Nanoscience; nanotechnology; ethics; legal aspects; social implications.
