It is concluded that the physiological and biochemical methods are the most sensitive for assessment of the toxicity of substances differing in their chemical nature. These methods best of all meet the requirements of bioassay as compared to other methods. They provide early diagnostics and a high rate of analyses. The pollution degree of aquatic environment and concentration of toxic pollutants can be inferred from the pattern of the deterioration of certain metabolic links that appear under the action of toxic pollutants.
