## Abstract Determining the toxicity of contaminants to soil organisms under field conditions is hampered by siteβspecific and temporal factors that modulate contaminant availability. Assessing the pollutionβinduced community tolerance (PICT) of indigenous microbial communities integrates these com
Comparison between a standard toxicological test with luminous bacteria based on DIN 38 412 L 34 1,2 and a rapid test yield similar results. However, the standard deviation of the rapid test was lower than that of the standard test. Costs for material and instruments are low; the test is easy to han
