Abstract
A method is presented for determining molybdenum in plant tissue and blood plasma by flame and flameless atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The samples are digested with HNO3- HClO4, and the metal is separated by chelation, extracted into methyl isobutyl ketone, and analyzed by AAS. Recoveries of molybdenum from fortified samples ranged from 92.0 to 98.9%. The limits of detection on the flame and graphite furnace were 10 and 2 ng/mL, respectively.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
