Mice and Rats - Research - 11)
Procter & Gamble is engineering nanosoot particles to develop products that
can penetrate skin and hair in ways that naturally occurring molecules do
not. More than a thousand hamsters, mice and rats (including the ones above
pictured here) were killed in tests where they were placed in sealed
containers and forced to breathe in air contaminated with 'nano' particles.
These experiments are done to produce "better" hair sprays, hand lotions and makeup.
What price they pay for human vanity.
