Risk assessment considers the situations and characteristics of the exposure environment and host. Various physiological variables of the human body reflects the characteristics of the population that can directly influence risk exposure. Therefore, identification of exposure factors based on the Korean population is required for appropriate risk assessment. It is expected that a handbook about general exposure factors will be used by professionals in many fields as well as the risk assessors of the health department. The process of developing the exposure factors handbook for the Korean population will be introduced in this article, with a specific focus on the general exposure factors including life expectancy, body weight, surface area, inhalation rates, amount of water intake, and soil ingestion targeting the Korean population. The researchers used national databases including the Life Table and the 2005 Time Use Survey from the National Statistical Office. The anthropometric study of size in Korea used the resources provided by the Korean Agency for Technology and Standards. In addition, direct measurement and questionnaire surveys of representative samples were performed to calculate the inhalation rate, drinking water intake, and soil ingestion.
风险评估会考虑暴露环境和宿主的情况及特征。人体的各种生理变量反映了人群的特征，这些特征可直接影响风险暴露。因此，为了进行恰当的风险评估，需要基于韩国人群确定暴露因素。预计一本关于一般暴露因素的手册将被许多领域的专业人员以及卫生部门的风险评估人员使用。本文将介绍韩国人群暴露因素手册的编制过程，特别关注针对韩国人群的一般暴露因素，包括预期寿命、体重、表面积、吸入率、饮水量和土壤摄入量。研究人员使用了包括生命表和韩国国家统计局2005年时间使用调查在内的国家数据库。韩国人体尺寸的人体测量研究使用了韩国技术标准局提供的资源。此外，还对代表性样本进行了直接测量和问卷调查，以计算吸入率、饮水量和土壤摄入量。
