Soil is a dynamic, living, natural body that is vital for terrestrial ecosystems. It has many ecological and human-linked functions. Definitions of important soil attributes - soil quality and health - is reviewed. Several aspects concerning soil quality assessment that are analysed in detail include requirements on indicators of soil quality and health and use of characteristics of soil microbial community for soil quality and health estimations. Possibilities for using microbial biomass as one of soil quality and health indicators are discussed
