Interaction of selenium with cadmium and mercury in semen and reproductive tissues: in vivo and in vitro studies

Creator:

Alabi, Nathaniel Sigismund

Abstract:

Studies were conducted to investigate the metabolism of selenium (Se) , and the influences of Se on the metabolism of cadmium (Cd) and inorganic mercury (Hg) in rats, and in ram semen in vitro. Se-deficient (-Se) or Se-adequate (+Se) rats were injected intraperitoneally with either ¹⁰⁹CdCl₂ (5 μCi/rat) or ²⁰³HgN0₃...

Selenium metabolism in the chick and effects of Vitamin E and selenium on heat stress

Creator:

Alayan, Mohammad Atta

Abstract:

An in vitro study was conducted to investigate the metabolism and distribution of Se⁷⁵-selenite and Se⁷⁵-selenomethionine (SEM) in chick blood. Se⁷⁵-selenite is taken up by RBC (13% within 20 minutes) and expelled into the plasma to become bound to proteins. In contrast, Se⁷⁵-SEM showed a more gradual and continuous buildup...

The effect of food processing on the bioavailability of selenium in tuna and wheat : human and rat studies

Creator:

Alexander, Anne Rose

Abstract:

Bioavailability of selenium (Se) in processed tuna and wheat products was studied in humans and rats. The protein source of the rat diets was torula yeast with Se supplied by either raw, precooked or canned tuna, or whole wheat flour, bread or bran. Sodium selenite was used as a control....
