Annotation On the territory of Ulan-Ude, the eco-geochemical study of soils has discovered that the content of lead and cadmium exceeds maximum permissible levels. The study proves that high doses of metals have a substantial influence on the activity of dehydrogenase soil enzyme. On the territory of “Ranet” collective gardens and the 9th kilometer of Spirtzavodskoy Highway with the lowest contamination with cadmium – 0.5 mg / kg, and lead – 18 mg / kg, the enzyme activity index is 7.0 mg. In contrast, the enzyme activity is low in areas with soils containing high concentration of metals. The activity of dehydrogenase directly depends on the content of cadmium and lead in the soil.
Key words soil, heavy metals, contamination, enzymes, dehydrogenase, activity.
