    Author: Ensafi AA, Khaloo SS.
    Journal: Talanta; 2005 Feb 15; 65(3):781-8. PubMed ID: 18969868.
    Abstract:
    A reliable and very sensitive procedure for the determination of ultra trace of molybdenum is proposed. Molybdenum was determined by cathodic stripping differential pulse voltammetry based on the adsorption collection of the Mo(VI)-Tiron complex on a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The variation of peak current with pH, concentration of Tiron and chlorate, plus several instrumental parameters such as accumulation time, accumulation potential and scan rate, were optimized. Under optimized condition, the relationship between the peak current and molybdenum concentration is linear in the range of 0.010-21.0ngml(-1). The limit of detection was found to be 0.006ngml(-1). The relative standard deviation for 10 replicates determination of 0.6 and 10ngml(-1) Mo(VI) is equal to 1.3 and 0.9%, respectively. The method was applied to the determination of molybdenum in river water, tap water, well water, plant foodstuff samples such as cucumber, tomato, carrot, and certified steel reference materials.
