An Overview of Selenium Uptake, Metabolism, and Toxicity in Plants.
Meetu Gupta,Shikha Gupta +1 more
TL;DR: Plants can play vital role in overcoming Se deficiency and Se toxicity in different regions of the world, hence, detailed mechanism of Se metabolism inside the plants is necessary for designing effective Se phytoremediation and biofortification strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current knowledge in species-related bioavailability of selenium in food
TL;DR: It is strongly suggested on the basis of a higher retention and a lower toxicity, that organic Se (especially SeMet, the major species in food) is more recommendable than inorganic Se in the frame of a balanced diet.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of arsenic in crops, vegetables, animals and food products.
TL;DR: This review tries to present the available data on As levels in various dietary sources, and the variation in the levels of inorganic and organic As species in different food items influence the associated As toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulses and food security: dietary protein, digestibility, bioactive and functional properties
TL;DR: It seems evident that pulse proteins will have a major role in fulfilling food protein demands, contributing to food security worldwide,Besides being achievable in more sustainable exploration processes, the technological and functional properties of pulse proteins should be considered in food formulation and processing.
