Описание (английский):

This International Standard gives guidance on the selection and method of appropriate tests for the determination of biodegradation of organic chemicals in soil samples under anaerobic conditions. NOTE For methods intended for tests in the framework of the registration of chemicals, an OECD Guideline on soil degradation gives useful guidance on additional test requirements.

Overview

ISO 15473:2002 - "Soil quality - Guidance on laboratory testing for biodegradation of organic chemicals in soil under anaerobic conditions" - provides standardized guidance for selecting and performing lab tests that assess how organic chemicals degrade in soils when oxygen is absent. The standard covers test design, soil selection and characterization, incubation methods, monitoring approaches (gas production and substance-specific analysis), and reporting. It also notes that for regulatory chemical registration, OECD soil degradation guidance should be consulted.

Key topics and technical requirements

Two principal test methods:

Methanogenic incubation: chemically induced low redox potential to simulate permanently anoxic (methane-producing) environments; method of choice for marsh, landfill or sludge-amended soils.
Water‑logged (flooded) incubation: simulates transient or natural anaerobic conditions; redox evolves according to soil properties (nitrate-, Fe-, sulfate‑reducing or eventually methanogenic).

Monitoring biodegradation:

Track production of CO2, CH4 and other volatiles; use of 14C-labelled compounds is recommended for volatile/metabolite mass balance and bound residue analysis.
Substance‑specific analyses to follow parent compound disappearance and identify metabolites.
Key kinetic endpoints include DT50 and DT90 (disappearance times).

Soil selection and characterization:

Preferably collect soils from the site of anticipated exposure; document field history and handling to minimize oxygen exposure.
Required soil property measurements include particle size (ISO 11277), pH (ISO 10390), organic carbon (ISO 10694), cation exchange capacity (ISO 11260), total nitrogen (ISO 11261), redox potential (ISO 11271) and water‑holding characteristics (ISO 11274).

Materials and apparatus:

Use oxygen‑free gases, reduced reagents (e.g., titanium(III) citrate), gas‑tight syringes, redox electrodes, and scintillation systems when using radiolabels.

Reporting:

Document test conditions, soil properties, incubation method, analytical methods, and biodegradation results for reproducibility and regulatory use.

Applications and users

Environmental testing laboratories performing anaerobic biodegradation testing and persistence studies.

Chemical manufacturers and registrants assessing soil persistence for regulatory dossiers.

Remediation consultants and soil scientists evaluating biodegradation potential in wetlands, landfills, sludge‑amended soils, and flooded agricultural fields.

Risk assessors using DT50/DT90 and metabolite/bound residue data to inform environmental fate models and remediation strategies.
