The underlying innovation idea of this proposal (which is mainly addressing exploitation and dissemination activities), is the development of an Intregrated Nanostructures Assessment-Service for the biological impact analysis of nanostructures (INAS) combining toxicology and LCA studies for innovative materials. In the linked FET project ICARUS (Nr. 713514), a portfolio of LCA and nanosafety assessment tools was developed to determine environmental indicators, emissions and the mass/energy balance related to different materials/solutions adopted for the production of nc-alloys, as well as to ensure the safety of the new alloys at all stages of its life-cycle. This portfolio, including in vitro tests, rapid high-throughput tests and mechanistic toxicity projects applying omics technologies, will be offered for the assessment of the human and environmental safety of the customer´s product, which could be implemented in the customer´s facilities too when requested. The toxicology assessment will be tailored as well to the chemical-related impacts for which characterization factors (CFs) are necessary within the LCA analysis, allowing a full harmonization between the available toxicity data and the customer´s products life cycle, following the European Commision´s Joint Research Centre (EC-JRC) recommendations. In preparation of the INAS service, the exploitation, IPR and dissemination strategies will be defined and implemented in this project, based on in-depth market analysis, business planning and other exploitation-related activities.
