A new method, the method of recurrent additions, is developed and successfully applied to studying the tolerance of higher plants that could become prospective tools to remediate polluted aquatic systems. The method was applied and proved to be efficient when studying 5 species of aquatic macrophytes (Elodea canadensis Michx., Potamogeton crispus L., Najas guadelupensis L., Fontinalis antipyretica L., and the macrophyte OST-1). Under the experimental conditions used, the tolerable load of the surfactant sodium dodecylsulphate on the system with the macrophyte OST-1 was 128.5 mg per 1 g of biomass (wet weight) over the time period of 213 days. The tolerable load of the laundry detergent tested on the system with the same macrophyte OST-1 was 333 mg per 1 g of biomass (wet weight) over the time period of 314 days. The species Salvinia natans L., S. auriculata Aubl. were also used in the bioassay experiments. It was found that these two species of Salvinia were among less tolerant macrophytes and they were vulnerable to the phytotoxic effect of these ecotoxicants.
