The Dynamics of Selenium in Dairy Agroecosystems

Exposure and Health, 2022
AbstractEnvironmental selenium deficiency and toxicity can result in Keshan disease and selenosis, respectively. Due to dietary preferences, milk is considered a primary source of selenium, where, in controlled environments milk selenium concentration reflects the selenium provided in fodder to lactating cows.
