Selenium nanoparticles: Enhanced nutrition and beyond
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2022Selenium is a trace nutrient that has both nutritional and nutraceutical functions, whereas narrow nutritional range of selenium intake limits its use. Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) are less toxic and more bioavailable than traditional forms of selenium, suggesting that SeNPs have the potential to replace traditional selenium in food industries and/or

The anti-tumor effect of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) has received more and more attention. However, the clinical application of SeNPs is not optimistic due to the poor stability. To improve the stability of SeNPs, many polymers are used to modify the SeNPs. However, most of the polymers are not approved by FDA.

Selenium nanoparticles as a nutritional supplement
Nutrition, 2017Selenium is an essential trace element in the diet, required for maintenance of health and growth; however, its toxicity could cause serious damage depending on dose and chemical form. Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) represent what we believe to be a novel prospect for nutritional supplementation because of their lower toxicity and ability to gradually ...

Proteins in microbial synthesis of selenium nanoparticles
Talanta, 2017Biogenic formation of nano-sized particles composed of various materials (in particular, selenium) by live microorganisms is widespread in nature. This phenomenon has been increasingly attracting the attention of researchers over the last decade not only owing to a range of diverse applications of such nanoparticles (NPs) in nanobiotechnology, but also

Anticancer Activity of Selenium Nanoparticles In Vitro Studies
Anti-Cancer Agents in Medicinal Chemistry, 2022Abstract: Health systems worldwide consider cancer a disease that causes the highest number of deaths per year. The low efficacy of current cancer therapies has led other areas of science to search for new alternatives, including nanomaterial sciences. Selenium nanoparticles have anticancer activity, as revealed by in vitro tests performed on prostate,

Green Synthesis of Nanoparticles Selenium
International Academic Journal of Science and Engineering, 2022The reaction of sodium selenite source with various extracted orange covers in an acidic suspension during ambient circumstances has been devised as a simple sol gel technique to generate selenium nanoparticles. The selenium nanoparticles were stabilized with polyvinyl alcohol. A high-speed centrifuge can be used to isolate the nanoparticles from their
