Abstract
Methods for sanitary analysis of soils can be used to estimate contamination of substrates by pathogenic fungi and bacteria.
They are of two types : the first one are used for numeration of parasites by the way of selective medium, the others are used to estimate infectivity of substrates by the way of plant-baits and are more practical.
They are of two types : the first one are used for numeration of parasites by the way of selective medium, the others are used to estimate infectivity of substrates by the way of plant-baits and are more practical.
All thyse methods allow – to detect presence or absence of a parasite in a substrate – to look for the origin of pollution (water, seeds, tools, containers, …) – to survey sanitary state of substrates when imported or traded.
This last point is impossible without a special laboratory for routine analysis.
