The most compelling reason for using biomarkers is that they can give information on the effect of pollutants rather than mere quantification of the levels present. The most critical aspect of environmental assessment is for society to decide how much damage it is prepared to tolerate. Once this is decided it is possible to devise tests to enforce these decisions. Suites of biomarkers have the potential to play an important role in environmental assessment.
使用生物标志物的最有力的原因是它们可以提供有关污染物影响的信息，而不仅仅是对存在水平的定量。环境评估最关键的方面是社会决定它准备容忍多少损害。一旦做出决定，就有可能设计出测试来执行这些决定。生物标志物套件有可能在环境评估中发挥重要作用。
