Selenium nanoparticles as a nutritional supplement
Sylvie Skalickova,Sylvie Skalickova,Vedran Milosavljevic,Vedran Milosavljevic,Kristyna Cihalova,Kristyna Cihalova,Pavel Horky,Lukas Richtera,Lukas Richtera,Vojtech Adam,Vojtech Adam +10 more
TL;DR: Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) represent what the authors believe to be a novel prospect for nutritional supplementation because of their lower toxicity and ability to gradually release selenium after ingestion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plants and microbes assisted selenium nanoparticles: characterization and application
TL;DR: The biogenic synthesis of Se nanoparticles, their characterization and transformation into t- Se, m-Se, Se-nanoballs, Se -nanowires and Se-hollow spheres in an innocuous way preventing the environment from pollution is analysed.

Green synthesis of palladium nanoparticles using gum ghatti (Anogeissus latifolia) and its application as an antioxidant and catalyst
Aruna Jyothi Kora,Lori Rastogi +1 more
TL;DR: A facile and green route for the synthesis of palladium nanoparticles from palladium chloride was developed using non-toxic, renewable plant polymer, gum ghatti ( Anogeissus latifolia ), as both the reducing and stabilizing agent as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis, characterization, and controlled release of selenium nanoparticles stabilized by chitosan of different molecular weights
TL;DR: It is found that both low and high molecular weight chitosan-stabilized selenium nanoparticles exhibited core-shell microstructures with a size of about 103 nm after 30 days growing through the "bottom-up approach" and "top-down approach," respectively.

The importance of selenium to human health
TL;DR: Selenium is needed for the proper functioning of the immune system, and appears to be a key nutrient in counteracting the development of virulence and inhibiting HIV progression to AIDS.
The importance of selenium to human health.
TL;DR: The essential trace mineral, selenium, is of fundamental importance to human health as mentioned in this paper, and it is needed for the proper functioning of the immune system, and appears to be a key nutrient in counteracting the development of virulence and inhibiting HIV progression to AIDS.

The deoxyribose method: a simple "test-tube" assay for determination of rate constants for reactions of hydroxyl radicals.
TL;DR: It is suggested that the deoxyribose assay is a simple and cheap alternative to pulse radiolysis for determination of rate constants for reaction of most biological molecules with hydroxyl radicals.
