Abstract
The paper outlines the effects of oxides of nitrogen upon the respiratory system. Toxic effects of different kinds of exposure (acute and chronic, experimental, occupational, and environmental) are detailed. Data are given from the literature to support the conclusions. An attempt is made to determine a safe level of nitrogen oxides.
