5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Toxicosis in pigs fed selenium-accumulating Astragalus plant species or sodium selenate
In this study, high selenium diets from different sources caused weight and hair loss in pigs, with additional hoof and coronary band problems particularly in those fed sodium selenate.
research The Genus Astragalus Species as an Emerging Source of Bioactive Phytochemicals: A Review of Dermatological and Cosmetic Applications
In this review, several studies on Astragalus species, particularly Astragalus membranaceus, highlight their skin rejuvenating, photoprotective, antimicrobial, and wound-healing properties, though the authors note limitations due to reliance on non-human studies and short trial durations.
research The reduction of selenium(IV) by boreal Pseudomonas sp. strain T5-6-I – Effects on selenium(IV) uptake in Brassica oleracea
This study found that the Pseudomonas sp. T5-6-I strain significantly increased selenium accumulation and root hair density in Brassica oleracea, highlighting its potential for phytoremediation and biofortification.
research Systemic subchronic toxicity and comparison of four selenium nutritional supplements by 90-day oral exposure in Sprague-Dawley rats
In this study on Sprague-Dawley rats, 0.60 mg/kg doses of L-Se-methylselenocysteine and sodium selenite were associated with liver toxicity and reduced sperm motility, while Se-enriched peptides showed no observable adverse effects up to 0.60 mg/kg.
research Toxicity of repeated oral intake of organic selenium, inorganic selenium, and selenium nanoparticles: A review
This study identified dose levels of selenium that can produce toxicity, noting that doses as low as 2-3 µg Se/kg bw/day can lead to adverse effects, and a human mortality study linked 300 µg/day consumption to increased death risk.
