Food Mutagens [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 2003
Several lines of evidence indicate that diet and dietary behaviors can contribute to human cancer risk. One way that this occurs is through the ingestion of food mutagens. Sporadic cancers result from a gene-environment interactions where the environment includes endogenous and exogenous exposures.

Mutagenicity comparison of nine bioselenocompounds in three Salmonella typhimurium strains

open access: yesToxicology Reports, 2018
Selenium (Se) is an essential element in animals but becomes severely toxic when the amount ingested exceeds the adequate intake level. It is known that the toxicological effects of Se are highly dependent on its chemical form.
