Abstract
At the PJTSAU Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, incubation tests were conducted to see how toluene, KNO3 and glucose affect the activity of the soil enzyme L-glutaminase. Toluene has a considerable impact on the activity of L-glutaminase; it lowers enzyme activity in all soils. From 17.19 % to 36.06 %, the percentage drop in activity caused by the addition of toluene was more pronounced in black soils as compared to red soils. For six days, L-glutaminase activity increased in soils that had been incubated with either glucose or glucose-nitrate mixtures. Glucose and nitrate-treated soils were more active than soils that had only been nitrate-treated alone.
