LUBLIN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY ENVIRONMENTAL BIOLOGY Biological analysis of water bodies function of bioindicators in assessment of environment quality Anna Martynenko Lublin 2015 Aim of classes. This practical focuses on possibility to use biota for monitoring of environment quality Procedure 1. Analysis of plankton using Pantles and Bucks method 1. Cleaning the slide 2. Placing a drop of plankton sample on the center of the microscope slide and covering the sample using slip 3. Examine 20 fields of view and counting individuals representing particular species plankton biota environment quality 4. Assigning particular species to the distinguished zones of water self-purification(saprobic zones) on the base of a list of the indicator species 5. Assigning the numerical valuess to the species(recognized as indicators) 6. Calculating relative abundance for each species the number of individuals of the species in total number of individuals of all species(in per cent) 7. Assigning values of frequency of occurren
