Safe Handling of Nanomaterials in Laboratories<\/strong><\/p>\n

(St. Gallen \/ Heidelberg) The \u201cNanorama Laboratory\u201c http:\/\/nano.dguv.de\/nanorama\/bgrci\/en\/<\/a> is one of three interactive educational tools available on the Nano-Platform \u201cSafe Handling of Nanomaterials\u201c (http:\/\/nano.dguv.de<\/a>; to date, the platform and the remaining \u201cNanoramas\u201d are available in German). The \u201cNanorama Laboratory\u201d was developed by the Innovation Society, St. Gallen, in close collaboration with the German Social Accident Insurance Institution for the raw materials and chemical industry (BG RCI). It offers insights into the safe handling of nanomaterials and installations used to manufacture or process nanomaterials in laboratories. Complementary to hazard evaluation assessments, it enables users to assess the occupational exposure to nanomaterials and to identify necessary protective measures when handling said materials in laboratories.<\/p>\n

\u00abDue to the attractive visual implementation and the interactive contents, the \u201cNanorama Laboratory\u201c offers a great introduction to protective measures in laboratories\u00bb, says Dr. Thomas H. Brock, Head of the Expert Committee on Hazardous Substances of the BG RCI. The \u201cNanorama Laboratory\u201d inspires curiosity in users and instigates them to reflect on the conditions in their respective workplaces. \u00abBy exploring the \u201cNanorama Laboratory\u201d, laboratory staff actively deals with occupational health and safety in laboratories and its practical implementation with regard to nanomaterials.\u00bb<\/p>\n

\u201cNanoramas\u201c \u2013 Multipurpose E-Learning Tools<\/strong><\/p>\n

A \u201cNanorama\u201d \u2013 a lexical blend of \u201cNano\u201d and \u201cPanorama\u201d, \u2013 is a novel 360\u00b0-E-learning module in which the user enters a virtual space and moves around in it. By completing a \u201cNanorama\u201d, users acquire knowledge in an entertaining manner. \u201cNanoramas\u201d can be applied in many areas of education and communication. They were developed by the Innovation Society, St. Gallen. More information on the tool can be found on http:\/\/innovationsgesellschaft.ch\/en\/competences\/training-and-education\/weborama\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The remaining modules, the \u201cNanorama Construction\u201d and the \u201cNanorama Car Workshop\u201d can be visited on http:\/\/nano.dguv.de\/nanorama\/bgbau\/ and http:\/\/nano.dguv.de\/nanorama\/bghm\/, respectively. They offer insights into the use and applications of nanomaterials in the construction industry respectively in car workshops. The existing \u201cNanoramas\u201d will be joined by another \u201cNanorama\u201d-module soon.<\/p>\n
