Metabolite Identification
Common NameMolybdenum
DescriptionMolybdenum, also known as Mo, 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. Molybdenum exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and possibly neutral molecule. Molybdenum exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. In cattle, molybdenum is involved in the metabolic pathway called the caffeine metabolism pathway. Molybdenum is a potentially toxic compound.
