QUIRINO, Carlos Tomás  and  SANCEN CONTRERAS, Fernando. Ubicación de riesgos en el trabajo a nanoescala. Una visión desde la ética. Mundo nano [online]. 2011, vol.4, n.1, pp.57-66.  Epub Sep 06, 2021. ISSN 2448-5691.  https://doi.org/10.22201/ceiich.24485691e.2011.1.50989.

Research and development (R&D) in nanoscience and nanotechnology (NyN) involve risks and benefits to society, and from ethics there should be constructed proposals involving the control of potential risks to health and the environment without hindering their progress, which leads to an ethic that create the future of man, who acts on itself and its environment. This paper addresses nanoethics, trying to advance a methodology to determine both aspects, the risks and benefits of R&D in N&N, specifically in relation to nanomaterials in the Pharmacy and Medicine field : nanomedicines.

Keywords : nanotechnology; nanoscale; risks; nanoethics; ethics; nanomedicines.
