• The effects of forms (single or clustered, pristine or transformed), aging, transformation (both chemical and biological), and elemental compositional analysis
and speciation on the inventory analysis warrant immediate attention.
• The information about how the large-scale productions of nanoparticles affect
the long-term impact in an ever changing environment is essential.
In a nutshell, addressing these research gaps and agglomeration on a common
research platform is required to extend a rational framework for safeguarding the
ecology that will result in a greener and safer earth around.
