Enzyme activities in soils under heavy metal pollution: a case study from the surroundings of a non-ferrous metal plant in Bulgaria

Soil enzyme activities are potentially valuable indicators of soil health in cases of heavy metal and metalloid (HM) pollution. However, the extent to which HM pollution affects specific enzyme activities remains unclear. In this study we assessed the level of HM pollution and its effects on soil en...
