Can any members point me in the direction of a nano particle measurement service or offer any comments on measurement of nano materials.

What sort of nanoparticles are you intending to measure? What conclusions do you expect to derive from the results? Thus far, it is extremely difficult to measure them against the background of naturally occurring nanoparticles, and the metric that should be used to gauge how hazardous they might be is presenting some interesting challenges.
