Overview

Molybdenum is a chemical element with symbol Mo and atomic number 42. As it is not a naturally occuring free metal on Earth, molybdenum is found only in various oxidation states in minerals. Molybdenum is commonly used in metallurgy and other chemical applications however it has essential biological roles in organisms and microorganisms. It is an essential trace dietary element and acts as a critical cofactor in several molybdenum-dependent enzymes that are involved in important cellular reactions and pathways, including xanthine oxidoreductase. When complexed with Technetium Tc 99m, molybdenum is used as a radiopharmaceutical agent in diagonistic procedures.
