| Abstract |
A short literature review of the toxicology of molybdenum is followed by the results of animal experiments aimed at determining whether poisoning by this metal can be prevented by adding sulfate ions to drinking water. The mechanism of the toxic action of molybdenum and the activating effect of sulfate on metal excretion are covered in detail. This effect is due to the activation of the enzyme system capable of oxidising the thiomolybdate. |
