Abstract

A method for the Mo-determination in human serum or plasma is described, employing ICP-MS coupled with graphite furnace atomization. Because of severe differences between the slopes of an aqueous calibration function and the signals produced in native serum samples, the standard addition method has to be used. Seventy serum samples from healthy individuals in the age between 2 and 60 years have been investigated. The mean value for the Mo-concentration found was 0.58±0.34 μg/l.
