Metabolite Identification
Common NameCobalt
DescriptionCobalt, also known as co(ii) or cobalt(2+) ion, belongs to the class of inorganic compounds known as homogeneous transition metal compounds. These are inorganic compounds containing only metal atoms,with the largest atom being a transition metal atom. Cobalt exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and possibly neutral molecule. Cobalt exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Cobalt is a potentially toxic compound.
