摘要
In this study, an isothermal microcalorimetric technique was used to demonstrate the impact of dimethyl phthalate (DMP), di-n-octyl phthalate (DOP) and diethyl phthalate (DEP) on soil microbial activity. The effect of these phthalate esters (a parts per thousand currency sign100 mu g g(-1) soil) follows the order: DEP > DMP > DOP but changed to DMP > DEP > DOP when the concentrations of the phthalate esters are above 100 mu g g(-1) soil. DMP, DEP and DOP significantly decreased (p < 0.05) the soil urease activity. The effect of phthalate esters on soil microbial activity is not the same with those on enzymatic activity. In addition, DEP, which has a lower bioavailability, is less toxic to soil microbes than that of DMP when its concentration is above 100 mu g g(-1) soil.
