The invention relates to the technical field of
wastewater detection, and discloses a
wastewater biotoxicity detection method which comprises the following steps: (1) adding an
organic solvent into to-be-detected
wastewater, centrifuging, and taking supernate; (2) dispersing the freeze-dried photogenic
bacteria in a 2%
sodium chloride solution, and resuscitating at normal temperature to obtain resuscitated
bacteria liquid with activity; (3) diluting the to-be-tested wastewater according to a preset
dilution ratio, and then carrying out a luminous bacterium method biotoxicity test to obtain a light inhibition rate gamma value; and (4) making a double logarithmic line graph by using the light suppression rate gamma value and the
dilution ratio, and calculating to obtain an EC50 value through an interpolation method. According to the present invention, the biological
toxicity test is performed by using the luminous
bacteria method, the biological
toxicity condition of the to-be-detected wastewater can be rapidly determined, and the
dimethyl sulfoxide is added to the to-be-detected wastewater to assist the
dissolution of the indissolvable
organic matter before the detection, such that the
solubility of the
organic matter in the to-be-detected wastewater can be effectively improved, and the accuracy of the determination result can be improved.
