Nanomaterials for animal growth
mercredi 2 juillet 2014 à 14:00The FDA is looking for nanomaterials to make animals grow faster.
In principle, this is a great idea. In practice, things may go wrong.
Animals will eat these materials in large quantities, then excrete them; what will happen then? Sewage treatment and water treatment plants were not designed with them in mind, so whether they get into our water will be a matter of luck. If they do, will they increase human obesity?
