关于人类接触环境物剂的信息是关于保护公众健康的知情决定的一个重要组成部分。从库存的风险相关的数据库的结果被用来检查风险评估，风险管理，监测的状态和趋势，流行病学研究的暴露信息的价值。调查结果表明，当前和未来的与保险相关的数据库应包括：（1）收集、存储、分析和报告数据的标准化程序;（2）随着时间的推移比较数据的能力增强，即，对“旧"和”新"方法进行比较研究;（3）公共和私营部门组织在信息系统的设计、维护、交流和审查方面的协调与合作机制;（4）测量有关人群的实际照射和剂量;以及（5）数据收集、存储和检索方法，其允许容易地操纵用于模型构建和测试的信息。
Information about human exposures to environmental agents is a crucial component of informed decisions about protection of public health. Results from an inventory of exposure-related databases are used to examine the value of exposure information for risk assessment, risk management, surveillance of status and trends, and epidemiologic studies. Findings indicate that current and future exposure-related databases should include (1) standardized procedures for the collection, storage, analysis, and reporting of data; (2) an enhanced ability to compare data over time, i.e., conduct comparison studies of ''old'' and ''new'' methods; (3) mechanisms for coordination and cooperation among public and private-sector organizations with respect to the design, maintenance, exchange, and review of information systems; (4) measurements of actual exposures and dose for relevant human populations; and (5) data collection, storage, and retrieval methods that permit easy manipulation of information for both model building and testing.
