摘要
A laboratory study was carried out to investigate the factors affecting the determination of microbial biomass sulphur (S) in soil in order to develop a more reliable assay. Biomass-S concentrations were determined by chloroform fumigation/direct extraction (with determination of the ks calibration constant using S-35 labelled microorganisms). The effects of period of fumigation, the need for chloroform evacuation, the type of extractant, and the time of extraction were investigated. The optimum values for biomass-S were obtained using a five day fumigation period without chloroform evacuation (use of S-35 labelled microorganisms demonstrated that there is a vacuum sensitive non-biomass-S pool), with CaCl2 as an extractant over a one hour extraction period.
