title: [The development of hygienic basis of odour regulation and control in ambient air and ways of harmonization in this field].
abstract: The work provides an overview of the major stages in the development of hygienic basis of regulation and control odour in our country and abroad. It indicates that the current methodology for the evaluation of odour due to its "obsessions" is consistent with the system of odour management in ambient air abroad based on the results of epidemiological studies. The methodology, based on the examination of the probability of perception not only the "indeterminate" smell, but smell with different intensity (odorimetriâ), aimed at preventing the appearance of "obsessive" smell among population, but without the time-consuming and expensive epidemiological studies has been proposed.
