Validating potential toxicity assays to assess petroleum hydrocarbon toxicity in polar soil
Abstract Potential microbial activities are commonly used to assess soil toxicity of petroleum hydrocarbons (PHC) and are assumed to be a surrogate for microbial activity within the soil ecosystem. However, this assumption needs to be evaluated for frozen soil, in which microbial activity is limited...
