Modified hytotoxicity assessment methodology of soils with the high percentage of organic matter was presented. This methodology allows to get comparable evaluation results on soils with various percentage of organic matter. Besides it allows to estimate phytotoxicity of the polluted soils and to form experimental conditions with different types and doses of carcinogens. The convergence of results on this technique is less than 5 %.
