The background for establishing standards for toxic agents is reviewed, and the standards of 14 different countries, including Sweden, are compared with special reference to criteria and organizational aspects. The differences among countries in the numerical limit values for toxic substances are largely due to differences in definitions, biomedical criteria, technical feasibility and sociopolitical judgements.
回顾了建立有毒物质标准的背景，并特别参照标准和组织方面，将包括瑞典在内的14个不同国家的标准进行了比较。各国在有毒物质数值限值方面的差异，很大程度上归因于定义、生物医学标准、技术可行性及社会政治判断等方面的差异。
