A turbidimetric test for rapid quantification of As(III) (detection limit of 3 mg/L, quantification range of 10-100 mg/L) in liquid growth medium was developed for assessing and monitoring microbial As(III)-oxidizing and As(V)-reducing activities. This test is based on As(III) chelation with pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate followed by spectrometric measurement of absorbance, and was validated by comparison with AAS quantification of As after As(III)/As(V) separation.
