Abstract We standardizedParamecium caudatum test model on the basis of identification of a quasichemical model representing the processes of population growth in the presence of nickel(II) sulfate, a toxic substance. The density of paramecium population depends on the time of exposure at different concentrations of nickel(II) sulfate. Ecotoxicological equation for population development was used to analyze the experimental data and to determine the standard kinetic parameters of population development in the presence of a toxic substance. An algorithm is developed for evaluation of quality of paramecium culture.
