Collembase: a repository for springtail genomics and soil quality assessment
Background Environmental quality assessment is traditionally based on responses of reproduction and survival of indicator organisms. For soil assessment the springtail Folsomia candida (Collembola) is an accepted standard test organism.

The influence of different substrates on the reproduction traits of Folsomia candida (Collembola) in an insecticide test [PDF]
The standard OECD tests for Folsomia candida should be performed on the standard OECD soil. However, if it is necessary to measure more parameters than the juvenile number and mortality, the use of different substrates is necessary.
