The Consumer Perception Unknown Invisible Unnatural History Benefits ? Risks ! External factors

Nanotechnology in Food Mostly: Water soluble Degradable by biological processes Made up of building blocks that always have been present in food products

Risk / Benefit Assessment It is essential that individual consumers have objective information to enable them to make a risk/benefit assessment Consumers must have faith in the credibility of the information Consumers are willing to take risks daily

Hazard and Risk Risk Assessment Hazard Identification Hazard Characterisatio n Risk Characterisatio n Exposure Assessment Risk Management Risk Communication

Risk management Precautionary principle: New technologies should not be allowed when they imply risks for men or environment, even when this risk has not been scientifically proven Proportionality principle: Measures taken should be based on risk-benefit evaluation: pe: no moratorium

Communication What have we learned from the GMO issue? How to avoid pitfalls Communication

Points of Attention Nanotechnology: there are hazards, we do not yet know if there are also risks Be honest about potential risks Research into effects Regulation and standardization Built trust

Of the unknown Fear is not a good counselor
