University Researcher Compares Carbon Nanotubes to Asbestos (video)

I found this YouTube video that helps me visualize how asbestos is physically similar to carbon nanotubes (CNT), Are Carbon Nanotubes the Next Asbestos? (video): Under a microscope, CNTs look identical to asbestos fibers, leading scientists to believe that they could cause similar health problems. In this video, North Carolina State University (NCSU) researcher, Dr. Jamie Bonner, shares his research on the potential toxicity of carbon nanotubes.

Cross-Reference GLPs by FDA EPA and OECD (free)

The information is organized in tables that cross-walk and cross-reference a particular row topic against the three columns for each organization. 


Here's what you'll be able to see:



Glossary: GLP = Good Laboratory Practice FDA = Food and Drug Administration EPA = Environmental Protection Agency OECD = Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
