Title: The determination of molybdenum in plants by an automated catalytic method
Abstract: Molybdenum is determined by its catalytic effect on the liberation of iodine from the reaction between potassium iodide and hydrogen peroxide. The detection limit is 0·003 µg ml–1 of molybdenum. Interference from iron and tungsten can be overcome by addition of ammonium fluoride, but for the greatest precision and accuracy a preliminary separation of molybdenum as its benzoin α-monoxime complex is recommended. Molybdenum concentrations determined by the proposed method in some reference plant materials are presented.
