Consumer groups find huge increase in nano products in EU

摘要

The latest inventory of nano products on the EU market drawn up by consumer groups ANEC and BEUC shows a huge increase in the number on the European market, compared with a similar survey carried out a year ago.rnWhile the 2009 inventory listed 151 products, in the 2010 inventory published this week BEUC and ANEC found 475, including some food supplements. Food products, including supplements, should not be on the market without clearance under the novel foods regulation, but many are available over the internet.
