Have you tried contacting NIOSH and their Nano-team?

Dear  members,

 

   Does anyone have a source on  a containment system  for  safely weighing  dry nanomaterial?   A chemical hood is usually too turbulent for the accuracy of a Mettler balance.  Any thought you have including precaution(s) to take for this type of  work would be appreciated.  

 

Thank you and keep up the great work you do.
