Environmental toxicity testing of contaminated soil based on microcalorimetry

Abstract: Contaminated site assessment and monitoring requires efficient risk-management tools including innovative environmental toxicity tests. The first application of microcalorimetry for toxicity testing draw the attention to a possible new tool to increase sensitivity, to eliminate matrix effect and to study effect-mechanism. A Thermal Activity Monitor (TAM) microcalorimeter was used for measuring the heat production of various test organisms when getting in contact with sterile toxic soils. Well known bacterial (… Show more

“…Six different test species were used during the ecotoxicological characterization of the soil samples: Azomonas agilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens (bacteria), Sinapis alba, and Lactuca sativa (plants), Folsomia candida, and Eisenia fetida (soil invertebrates). The two bacterial tests were performed using the methods of previous studies [12], [14]. Plant and invertebrate tests were based on various OECD guidelines [18], [19], [20].…”

“…Many researchers stated that biological parameters should be taken into account during the evaluation of soil quality, besides the traditional chemical methods [12][13][14][15]. Soil bioassays are efficient methods to estimate the potential danger of different impacts on the soil [15].…”
