The number of products containing engineered nanomaterials increased and market survey found silver, silica, zinc oxide, and titanium dioxide were dominant. Most products have used in our life frequently and it is inevitable for consumer to expose various nanomaterials in products during their use. In the research on human health risks of nanomaterials, the priority is the information on the presence of nanomaterials in consumer products. Though this information is required to estimate exposure and risks, there is no reliable method and data. In the study, we collected non-food products which are nano-claimed by manufacturer. All products are for consumers and our personal life. Several analytical methods were applied to detect and qualify the nanomaterials in products. Finally, we estimated the exposure of consumer to nanomaterials using several exposure algorithms.
