ClearA template wizard for the cocreation of machine-readable data-reporting to harmonize the evaluation of (nano)materials
Researchers created a user-friendly tool called the Template Wizard that helps scientists record and share their nanomaterial safety data in standardized, machine-readable formats. The tool includes over 60 templates for common experiments in nanosafety research, including toxicity testing. While focused on data management rather than microplastics directly, standardized reporting of nanoplastic safety data is critical for building a reliable evidence base on the health risks of micro- and nanoplastics.
Cytotoxicity assessment of HDPE microplastic on Tetrahymena thermophila (Protozoa, Ciliate): Assuring quality and FAIR data
Researchers assessed the cytotoxicity of high-density polyethylene microplastics on the single-celled organism Tetrahymena thermophila, focusing on data quality and reproducibility. They found that HDPE microplastics at tested concentrations affected cell viability, and they documented their methods following FAIR data principles to improve transparency in microplastic hazard research. The study serves as a case study for how to conduct rigorous, reproducible microplastic toxicity assessments.
Similarity of multicomponent nanomaterials in a safer-by-design context: the case of core–shell quantum dots
Researchers explored how concepts of material similarity can be applied to complex multicomponent nanomaterials like core-shell quantum dots in a safer-by-design framework. The study aims to help balance material performance with potential hazards by identifying structurally similar nanomaterials. The approach could inform safer manufacturing decisions for advanced materials without requiring extensive individual toxicity testing.
