The activity of b-glucosidase was inhibited in all Cd contaminated MC soils and in SA soils containing 20 and
40 mg Cd kgK1 (Fig. 2) whereas the activity of arylsulfatase was strongly inhibited in all Cd-contaminated MC soils and
in SA soils containing 20 and 40 mg Cd kgK1 (Fig. 2).
The activity of urease was not inhibited by Cd in both MC or SA soils whereas the activity of protease was
significantly inhibited in MC soils and in SA soils containing 20 and 40 mg Cd kgK1 (Fig. 2).
