M33 - Conference paper at an international conference, printed in full

Environmental pollution with heavy metals is one of the most important problems that should be addressed worldwide. Thus, efforts have been made in the development and evaluation of different soil pollution indicators. Among them, soil enzyme activity is regarded as the most prominent indicator, considering its enrolment in soil organic matter decomposition and the soil nutrient cycling. Special emphasis is given to the ecoenzymatic stoichiometry, which is regarded as an emerging method in soil pollution assessment. Based on the ratio of the enzyme activity, the ecoenzymatic stoichiometry can be used to assess the soil microbial metabolic limitation under various environmental disturbances. Taking into account different methods for ecological resorting of the contaminated environment, phyotremediation is considered as ecological and cost effective. Thus the evaluation of possible application of ecoenzymatic stoichiometry in the assessment of the impact of phytoremediation on soil structure and function is of great importance.
