Przybulewska, K.
The paper presents the results referring to soil salinity influence on the content of microorganism's biomass. Soil contamination was applied in a form of NaCl at following concentrations: 10, 100 and 1 000 mmol/kg. The soil with no salt addition was the control. Content of living microorganism's biomass was determined using physiological method according to Andersen and Domsch. Regardless the soil type, NaCl diminished the amount of biomass, but by 20 percent stronger in sandy than loamy soil. It was also found that negative influence of NaCl decreased in time in loamy soil, which was not observed in the sand
