January 2012 in “IOSR Journal of Environmental Science Toxicology and Food Technology” This study found that high doses of ethyl acetate extract from Tridax procumbens can have specific toxic effects in rats, including organ damage and significant changes in some serum biochemical parameters.
September 2023 in “Food and chemical toxicology” 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.
April 2026 in “International Journal of Advanced Biochemistry Research” This study assessed mice's hematology and serum enzymes under sodium arsenite toxicity and observed that Aegle marmelos fruit extract reduced liver and kidney damage, mitigating the toxin's effects by maintaining normal enzyme levels when both were administered together.
This book chapter discusses the mechanisms and prevention of selenium toxicity in livestock and reports no new experimental results; it emphasizes reducing selenium in the human food chain through animal products.
