Abstract
Ultrafiltration is suggested for the elimination of artifacts evolved from the biochemical transformation of water-soluble organic substances in lysim eter collectors. A membrane filter installed between the vessel of the lysi meter and its collector provides the separation of microbial cells from wat er-soluble organic substances immediately at the infiltrate accumulation.
