Selenium is an essential element in animals and humans. Diet supplementation with selenium-rich vegetables has better chemoprotective effect than Se (IV) and SeMet. The production of selenium-enriched vegetables requires a preliminary stage in soil preparation, which may subsequently pose a risk of soil contamination. It seems that the sprouting of seeds under controlled conditions would be a good solution for delivering SeMetSeCys...

Selenium is considered one of the essential elements in animals and humans. The main source of selenium intake for humans is the diet. Selenium deficiency has one of the most concerning issues worldwide. Broccoli sprouts are five-to-six-day old broccoli plants,...

In This paper the method of supplementation of selenium in the environment and analytical methods of determining selenium were described

Przedstawiono nowe zaawansowane metody specjacji selenu w dodatkach spożywczych. Szczególną uwagę zwrócono na przygotowanie próbek odnośnie: frakcjonowania różnych klas związków tworzonych przez selen, rozdzielanie wodnych ekstraktów za pomocą chromatografii wykluczeniowej oraz charakteryzowania rozpuszczalnych w wodzie frakcji proteinowych przy użyciu detektorów MALDI oraz TOF-MS.

Selenium occurs in the environment in inorganic and organic compounds. For many years it was regarded as a toxic element, causing numerous illnesses and diseases. But research in the last 50 years has revealed a "bright side" to this element, especially as a component of selenoproteins, selenium makes a significant contribution to the health of humans and animals. The selenium content in an organism depends on its concentration...
