10、 17155:2012ISO 17155:2012(E)ForewordISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested

11、 in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Comm

12、ission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical

13、 committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall

14、not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 17155 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 190, Soil quality, Subcommittee SC 4, Biological methods.This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 17155:2002), which has been technically revised.iv ISO 2

It is recommended that at least three replicates per sample be measured.7.2 Sampling and storageThe recommendations in ISO 10381-6 for collection, ha

ISO 2012 All rights reserved 3BS ISO 17155:2012ISO 17155:2012(E)7.3 Soil sample characteristicsSoil samples generating soil respiration curves can be obtained from mineral, organic, polluted, and unpolluted soils. Determine the following characte

33、ristics for each soil sample: particle size distribution in accordance with ISO 11277; water content in accordance with ISO 11465; water-holding capacity in accordance with Annex A of ISO 14238:2012; pH in accordance with ISO 10390; organic matter content in accordance with ISO 10694.8 Procedure8.1

34、TestPre-incubate moist soil samples (preferably 40 % to 60 % of maximum water holding capacity or 0,01 MPa to 0,03 MPa suction pressure) at 20 C for 3 d to 4 d before the beginning of the measurement. Measure the basal respiration of the sub-samples first. Measure the respiration rates until constan

35、t rates are obtained.After measuring the basal respiration, add 10 mg of the substrate (5.4) per gram soil (dry mass) and mix homogeneously with a spatula into the soil samples. If the organic matter content is 5 %, add 0,2 g of the substrate per gram humus (see References 45).8.2 Toxicity testingIn

36、 principle, testing the influence of chemicals should also be possible with the method. Up to the time of publication, there is only scarce experience available in the literature.To determine the influence of chemicals on the abundance and activity of soil microorganisms, a soil with low content of

37、organic carbon (mass fraction between 0,5 % and 1,5 %). Particles of size 0,3 (mineral soils arable, grassland), QR 0,4 (mineral forest soils) and QR 0,6 (organic layers L, Of, Oh) and tpeakmax 50 h are indicative for polluted materials (see References 7 and 8).Moreover, polluted samples often do no

38、t show any logarithmic increase of respiration rates after addition of substrate and/or formation of double peaks (see Figure 2). Double peak formation is caused by a short-term or selective toxic effect of a contaminant. In particular, slowly growing fungi with the marker 18:29,12 seem to be respon

39、sible for the formation of a second respiration maximum (Reference 15).NOTE Double peaks can also occur in unpolluted samples. Reasons for this phenomenon are growth of fungi due to suboptimal (high) water contents. 6 ISO 2012 All rights reservedBS ISO 17155:2012ISO 17155:2012(E)KeyX t h timeY R g g

42、t ways, of which the two intermediate are most likely to occur. Death: the substance is very toxic. The respiration decreases rapidly, but if the toxic substance is removed, either by degradation or evaporation, the survivors can decompose the dead biomass and the respiration is temporarily as high

43、or higher than before the addition of the substance, but the biomass remains low for a considerable time (see Reference 10). Intolerance: the toxicity of the test substance is moderate. Sensitive species are replaced by more resistant ones. The decomposition of soil organic matter becomes less effic

44、ient and less biomass is formed (see Reference 11). The activity and vitality of the microorganisms might also be reduced. ISO 2012 All rights reserved 7BS ISO 17155:2012ISO 17155:2012(E) No observed effect: the toxicity of the test substance is small. If some species are affected they are replaced

45、by others that are as effective as the original flora (see Reference 12). CO2from the slow degradation of an organic test substance can possibly mask a reduced degradation of soil organic matter. Enhancement: the test substance is a suitable substrate for at least some of the soil organisms. Respira

46、tion is increased until the test substance is consumed (see Reference 13). The biomass and vitality of the growing organisms are also increased.The responses of intolerance or no observed effect to a chemical are the most likely to occur.10 Test reportThe test report shall include the following info
