چکیده

Our research method for the calorimetric characterization of the biological effects of drugs and other chemicals on metabolic activities of living cells is outlined. The effects of various substances on different microbial systems were studied quantitatively using a calorimeter, and the results were used to plot drug potency curves for each drug. The method was also used to study microbial activity in soil. It was found to be a useful technique for the quantitative characterization of pollutants in ecological systems.
