In model laboratory studies, the effect of veterinary antibiotic tylosin (concentrations of 1, 10, 100, 1000 mg/kg of soil) on the ecological state of dark brown soil under conditions of contamination with antibiotics and the degree of change of microbiological and biochemical parameters was studied. To assess the ecological state, the following biological indicators were studied: from microbiological - the total number of bacteria, the abundances of bacteria of the genus Azotobacter, from biochemical - the activi...

In model laboratory studies of dynamics (3, 30, and 90 days), the effect of veterinary antibiotic tylosin on the biochemical properties of brown forest soil was studied at concentrations of 1, 10, 100, 1000 mg/kg of soil. To study the biochemical properties of the soil, the following indicators were selected: the activity of enzymes of the class of oxidoreductases (catalase, dehydrogenases), hydrolases (invertase, phosphatase), and acidity of the soil (pH). It has been established that contamination of brown fores...

Variations of biological properties (3, 30, 90 days) of chernozem under the impact of antibiotics (ampicillin, streptomycin, tylosin) and pesticides (systemic fungicide input) in the concentration of 500 mg/kg of soil have been studied in simulation experiments. Addition of biocides varies the enumeration of microorganisms and enzymatic activity of soils. Correlation analysis revealed positive interrelation between enzymes of the two considered classes (dehydrogenase, invertase) with enumeration of micromycetes (r...

Indices of soil respiration are widely used for evaluation of ecosystem productivity as well as for analysis of activity of soil microbiocenosis. Evolution of carbon dioxide can be an objective index of decomposition of soil organic matter and permits to characterize one of the most important aspects of biological cycle. This article analyzes dynamics of carbon dioxide evolution rate in ordinary chernozem upon contamination with antibiotics (ampicillin, streptomycin, tylosin, tromexin, aliseryl) in the concentrati...

The influence of seven years of using the direct seeding technology on the eco-biological properties of black soils in the Rostov region has been comparatively studied. These soils are found in vast areas of the South of Russia, and are the most productive arable soils. Seasonal comprehensive studies have shown that, if compared to the traditional ways of tillage, direct seeding results in changes in the soils' physical and biological properties. The studied parameters of soils considerably depend on the cultivate...
