Description: Summary discusses Manufactured nanomaterials (MN) "toxicity testing difficulties, and whether current test guidelines adequately address these issues.  The reviews on which this summary is based were undertaken with the understanding that the specific goal was to address the issue of test guideline adequacy and to identify specifically where and how the guidelines might be inadequate.  No effort was made to suggest specific alterations of guidelines to improve their adequacy"--Introduction.
