DIN ISO 17616:2009 Soil quality - Guidance on the choice and evaluation of bioassays for ecotoxicological characterization of soils and soil materials (ISO 17616:2008);English version of DIN ISO 17616:2009-11
This International Standard is one of a series providing guidance on the characterization of soils and soil
materials in relation to their retention and habitat function and uses. It should be read in conjunction with the
other standards in this series. It provides guidance on the choice and evaluation of tests applied for
ecotoxicological characterization of soils and soil materials, Recommendations for test strategies with respect
to the protection of ground and surface waters and the maintenance of the habitat function of soil are included.
The tests recommended represent a minimum test battery that may be accomplished by additional tests, or
even be replaced by others, according to the intended uses or protection goals envisaged. The effect values
indicated in this International Standard de net refer to regulation, but represent the lowest level at which a
response is supposed to result in an adverse effect.
