Molybdenum CAS 7439-98-7

The biological properties are also important, it is not only a trace element essential for plants but also animals. Molybdenum is one of the main components of molybdenum protease in nitrogen-fixing bacteria in plants; It is also one of the main components of plant nitrate reductase; It can also stimulate phosphatase activity and promote the synthesis and delivery of sugar and starch in crops; Facilitates early maturation of crops. Molybdenum is one of seven important micronutrients. Molybdenum is also one of the basic components of xanthine oxidase and aldehyde oxidase in the liver and intestines of animals, and is also the basic component of heparin sulfite oxidase. Studies have shown that molybdenum also has obvious anti-caries effect, molybdenum has a strong inhibitory effect on the formation of urinary stones, and the lack of molybdenum in the human body is prone to kidney stones. A healthy person weighing 70 kg contains molybdenum 9 mg in his body. For humans, molybdenum is the only known indispensable element in the second and third types of transition elements, compared with similar transitional elements, molybdenum toxicity is low, and can even be considered non-toxic. Of course, excessive ingestion will also speed up the oxidation of elastic substances in the walls of human arteries – acetal phospholipids. Thus, in areas where the soil content is too high, the incidence of cancer is low, but the incidence of gout and systemic arteriosclerosis is higher. Animals that eat forage containing excessive molybdenum, especially longhorns, are susceptible to stomach problems.
