Well, they are heavy metals. Heavy metals are potent free radicals and disrupters of human health. It leads to metal toxicity.

Yes I understand that but I'm just looking for something a bit more specific. There is lots of literatuere on mechanisms of toxicity for copper, cobalt, nickle etc but when it comes to molybdenum and selenium I can hardly find any.
