ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY

Soil Enzymes — the Workforce of the Soil

Soil enzymes drive biogeochemical cycles: organic-matter decomposition, nutrient availability and ecological stability. Enzyme assays surface changes in soil functionality before they become visible in yield.

Dehydrogenase (INT) ISO 23753-2:2005 Global microbial activity — the standard read for soil biological vitality. €35 / €32 above 10
4-Enzyme Pack β-xylosidase · β-N-acetylglucosaminidase · β-glucosidase · Phosphatase Coverage of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus cycling enzymes in a single submission. €85 / €80 above 10
Urease Urea hydrolysis assay Indicator of N cycling and the soil’s capacity to mineralise organic nitrogen. Quote on request
MICROBIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY

From Quantification to the Whole Community

Soil microbiology underpins fertility, plant health and agricultural sustainability. Choose the depth of insight you need — from culturable counts and root colonisation, all the way to whole-community metagenomics.

Culturable microorganism quantification Quantification of bacteria, fungi and other culturable groups in environmental samples. €20 / €17 above 10
PGPM activity (in vitro) Plant-growth-promoting microorganism screening: phosphate solubilisation, N fixation, phytohormone production. Quote on request
Mycorrhizal colonisation Root assessment of arbuscular mycorrhizal colonisation — symbiosis essential for nutrient uptake and stress tolerance. €40 / €35 above 10
Metabarcoding (16S / ITS) Diversity profile of bacteria and/or fungi via amplicon sequencing. €150 / €140 above 10
Shotgun metagenomics Whole-microbiome characterisation including functional annotation. €200 / €180 above 10
Isolation in selective media Targeted microbial isolation on selective media for downstream identification or formulation. €30 / sample

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How is SoilCheck priced?

Each test is priced individually — you order only what you need. Dehydrogenase from €35/sample, the 4-enzyme pack from €85/sample, mycorrhizal colonisation from €40/sample, microbial quantification from €20/sample. Metabarcoding and shotgun metagenomics are available for community-level questions. Several tests are quoted on request because they depend on the matrix.

Which test should I start with?

For a quick read on global biological activity, dehydrogenase (INT) is the standard. For nutrient cycling, choose the 4-enzyme pack. For symbiotic root health, choose mycorrhizal colonisation. For an entire microbiome profile, see MetaInsight.

Can I monitor over time?

Yes — most clients re-run the same panel seasonally to track the impact of agricultural interventions.
