A rapid and accurate method for the determination of molybdenum in plant materials with toluene-3,4-dithiol
Abstract
A rapid and accurate method is described for determining molybdenum in plant materials with toluene-3,4-dithiol. The molybdenum is allowed to react with the reagent in a solution with a sulphuric acid concentration of about 6 N. Prior separation of the element from the acid digest of the plant material is unnecessary, there being no loss of sensitivity or accuracy if this process is omitted.
