Abstract
The production of bread with addition of selenium-enriched soya malt was studied. Processing of this soya malt included soaking of the soya beans in the solution of hydroselenite with concentration 1.5 mg Se/L (20 μg of Se per 1 g of soya beans), then 4 days of beans germination at 20 °C, drying at 50 °C until moisture content 8%, separation from the sprouts and grinding. The soya malt was a powder containing 15-18 μg of Se in 1 g. The accumulated selenium was mainly in the protein fraction of soya malt. Addition of selenium-enriched soya malt to leaven intensified activity of yeasts and lactic acid bacteria. The quality of the wheat bread with selenium-enriched soya malt was better than that of the bread in control. The enriched bread had specific pleasant smell and soft texture. The daily intake of 277 g of bread with the selenium-enriched soya malt, which is added in quantity of 1.0-1.75% to mass of plain flour, ensures the consumption of 30-50% of selenium recommended daily allowance for 17 million population of the northern and northwestern Ukraine.

Abstract
Selenium, an important dietary nutrient, is found in many foods. Selenium occurs in various chemical forms including in amino acids with methylselenium functional groups, such as selenomethionine (Semet) and Se-(methyl)selenocystine (Metsecys). We developed a procedure for determining methylselenium in foods such as wheat, a significant dietary source of selenium in the United States. This method is based upon the reaction of cyanogen bromide (CNBr) to cleave the CH3Se-functional group of Semet and Metsecys to form the volatile compound, CH3SeCN. Addition of stable isotope (74Se) enriched selenomethionine to an analytical sample allows direct determination of naturally occurring protein bound Semet by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), without a protein digestion step, using highly precise stable isotope dilution techniques. We found that a wheat gluten reference material (NIST RM 1818) contains 64% methylselenium of its assigned value of 2.58 μg Setotal/g. and that commercial selenium yeast tablets contained 73% of total selenium as methylselenium [147 ± 10 μg Semetse/g (n = 9)]. These two materials would be good candidates for further study and characterization as reference materials for determining this important food component.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is an essential element in poultry nutrition and its bio-efficacy depends on its chemical form. A growing body of research proves that organic forms of Se, mainly selenomethionine (SeMet), in poultry diets have a range of important advantages over traditional sodium selenite. In fact, the organic Se concept considers SeMet as a storage form of Se in the chicken body. As chickens are not able to synthesize SeMet, its provision through diet is a key strategy to fight commercially relevant stresses. Indeed, in stress conditions, when increased selenoprotein expression requires additional Se, while its provision via feed usually decreases due to a reduction in feed consumption, Se reserves in the body (mainly in the muscles) could help maintain an effective antioxidant defense and prevent detrimental consequences of stresses. The poultry industry is looking for the most effective sources of organic Se for commercial use. In this review, advantages and disadvantages of main organic Se sources for poultry (Se-yeast, SeMet, and OH-SeMet) are analyzed, and future directions for the development of new Se sources are identified.

Abstract
A shotgun proteomic approach was applied to characterize the selenium (Se)-containing proteins of the selenium hyperaccumulator monkeypot nut (Lecythis minor) seeds. The exceptionally high Se content (>4,000 mg kg(-1)) of the sample enabled a straightforward procedure without the need for multiple preconcentration and fractionation steps. The proteins identified were sulfur-rich seed proteins, namely, 11S globulin (Q84ND2), 2S albumin (B6EU54), 2S sulfur-rich seed storage proteins (P04403 and P0C8Y8) and a 11S globulin-like protein (A0EM48). Database directed search for theoretically selenium-containing peptides was assisted by manual spectra evaluation to achieve around 25% coverage on sulfur analogues. Remarkable detoxification mechanisms on the proteome level were revealed in the form of multiple selenomethionine-methionine substitution and the lack of selenocysteine residues. The degree of selenomethionine substitution could be characterized by an exponential function that implies the inhibition of protein elongation by selenomethionine. Our results contribute to the deeper understanding of selenium detoxification procedures in hyperaccumulator plants.

Abstract
A microwave-assisted enzymatic extraction (MAEE) method was developed for the simultaneous extraction of arsenic (As) and selenium (Se) species in rice products. The total arsenic and selenium content in the enzymatic extracts were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), while the speciation analysis was performed by ion chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (IC-ICP-MS). The main factors affecting the enzymatic extraction process were evaluated in NIST SRM-1568a rice flour. The optimum extraction conditions were 500 mg of sample, 50 mg of protease XIV, and 25 mg of alpha-amylase in aqueous medium during 40 min at 37 degrees C. The extraction recoveries of total As and Se reached 100 +/- 3 and 80 +/- 4%, respectively. The species stability study during the MAEE process did not show transformation of the target species in rice products. The results of As speciation obtained for SRM-1568a were in agreement with previous studies of As speciation performed on the same reference material. The proposed method was applied to the determination of As and Se species in rice and rice-based cereals. Arsenite [As(III)], arsenate [As(V)], dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), and selenomethionine (SeMet) were the predominant species identified in rice products.

Abstract
Updated estimates of the selenomethionine content of four NIST wheat reference materials have been obtained by use of a revised gas chromatography-stable-isotope dilution mass spectrometric method. The revised method makes use of digestion with methanesulfonic acid, which enables more complete recovery of endogenous selenomethionine than was previously achieved by overnight denaturing treatment in 0.1 mol L(-1) HCl. The NIST wheat reference materials each contain approximately 55% of their total Se content as selenomethionine. Information about forms of Se in reference materials adds value to these materials in Se speciation studies. Estimates of selenomethionine content are also provided for other wheat samples, including several grown under conditions of exposure to high Se levels. These samples also contain approximately 55% of their total Se content as selenomethionine. The consistent level of 55% of total selenium occurring in the form of selenomethionine when the total selenium content varies by a factor of 500 is suggestive of an active mechanism of incorporation of selenium into wheat grain.

Abstract
Especially in the last decade, a vast number of papers on Se and its role in health issues have been published. This review gives a brief, critical overview of the main analytical findings reported in these papers. Of particular interest is the Se content in different food sources worldwide and the extent to which their consumption is reflected in the Se content of human tissues and body fluids. Several food sources, both natural (Brazil nuts, garlic, Brassica juncea) and Se-enriched (yeast-based supplements), are discussed as to origin, characteristics, Se metabolism and impact of their consumption on the human body. The continuous development of new and improvement of existing analytical techniques has provided different powerful tools to unravel the Se species and their function. An up-to-date literature study on Se speciation analysis is given, illustrating how analytical chemistry in its different facets aids in the identification of Se compounds and provides insight into the complete metabolic pathway of Se throughout the human body. This review includes a detailed image of the current state-of-the-art of Se speciation analysis in these food sources and in human tissues and body fluids.

Abstract
Selenium exists in several oxidation states and a variety of inorganic and organic compounds, and the chemistry of selenium is complex in both the environment and living systems. Selenium is an essential element at trace levels and toxic at greater levels. Interest in speciation analysis for selenium has grown rapidly in this last decade, especially in the use of chromatographic separation coupled with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Complete characterization of selenium compounds is necessary to understand selenium's significance in metabolic processes, clinical chemistry, biology, toxicology, nutrition and the environment. This review describes some of the essential background of selenium, and more importantly, some of the currently used separation methodologies, both chromatographic and electrophoretic, with emphasis on applications of selenium speciation analysis using ICP-MS detection.

Abstract
A standard GC-MS instrument with electron impact ionisation has been used to develop a fast, simple and reliable method for the simultaneous determination of monobutyltin (MBT), dibutyltin (DBT) and tributyltin (TBT) in water samples. Isotope dilution analysis (IDA) is used for the determination of species, taking advantage of a commercially available spike solution containing a mixture of MBT, DBT and TBT enriched in 119Sn. Method detection limits for 100-mL samples were between 0.18 and 0.25 ng L(-1) for the three butyltin compounds with typical RSD between 2 and 4% at levels between 100 and 10 ng L(-1), respectively. Recovery of tin species in spiked samples (natural water, wastewater and seawater) was quantitative. The stability of butyltin compounds in collected seawater samples was also studied. The addition of a 1% (v/v) glacial acetic acid preserved tin species in the samples for at least 5 days at room temperature. The IDA method was finally implemented in a routine testing laboratory and it was subsequently accredited by the Spanish National Accreditation Body according to the requirements of UNE-EN ISO/IEC 17025.

Abstract
This document reviews the most relevant mass spectrometry approaches to selenium (Se) speciation in high-Se food supplements in terms of qualitative and quantitative Se speciation and Se-containing species identification, with special reference to high-Se yeast, garlic, onions and Brazil nuts. Important topics such as complexity of Se speciation in these materials and the importance of combining Se-specific detection and molecule-specific determination of the particular species of this element in parallel with chromatography, to understand their nutritional role and cancer preventive properties are critically discussed throughout. The versatility and potential of mass spectrometric detection in this field are clearly demonstrated. Although great advances have been achieved, further developments are required, especially if "speciated"certified reference materials (CRMs) are to be produced for validation of measurements of target Se-containing species in Se-food supplements.

Abstract
Determination of selenomethionine in selenized yeast by HPLC-ICP MS has been revisited with the focus on recovery of this amino acid during the proteolytic digestion and chromatography steps. Recovery of the extracted selenium from an anion-exchange column was 100% but selenomethionine quantified by the method of standard additions accounted only for 67% of the selenium injected. Analysis (by size-exclusion LC-ICP MS) of the eluate collected before and after the selenomethionine peak showed the presence of oxidized selenomethionine (ca. 3%) and selenomethionine likely to be unspecifically associated with the biological matrix continuum (ca. 11%). This finding was validated by two-dimensional LC-ICP MS using a different elution order, i.e. size-exclusion anion-exchange. The approach developed enabled demonstration that more than 80% of selenium in the selenized yeast is actually present in the form of selenomethionine and suggests that many results reported elsewhere for the concentration of this vital amino acid in selenized yeast may be negatively biased. The research also provided insight into speciation of selenium in the solid residue after proteolytic extraction but the additional amount of selenomethionine recovered was negligible (<1.5%).

Abstract
Fourteen extraction methods commonly cited in the literature were evaluated for the quantitation of methionine (Met) and selenomethionine (SeMet) in a yeast candidate certified reference material (CRM). Species specific isotope dilution (ID) gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was utilized to effectively compensate for potential errors, such as losses during derivatization and clean up steps. Despite different extraction methods, the same derivatization procedure using methyl chloroformate was applied with a single exception, which was based on digestion with cyanogen bromide with 2% SnCl2 in 0.1 M HCl. Significant differences in measured Met and SeMet concentrations were obtained when different extraction methods were used. A 4 M methanesulfonic acid reflux digestion was found to be the most efficient for both analytes. Digestion with CNBr with 2% SnCl2 in 0.1 M HCl for the determination of SeMet showed the second highest extraction efficiency. Despite frequent use of enzymatic hydrolysis for the extraction of SeMet from yeast, very low extraction efficiencies for both analytes were obtained for four of eight tested methods. Among these, the highest extraction efficiencies for both analytes were obtained using 20mg pronase and 10mg lipase with incubation at 37 degrees C for 24 h. However, recoveries remained nearly 30 and 50% lower for Met and SeMet, respectively, compared to extraction with methanesulfonic acid. Lowest extraction efficiencies for both analytes were obtained when HCl or tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) digestions were used. Efficient extraction was also achieved using 200 mg (or 400 mg) of protease XIV with incubation at 37 degrees C for 72 h (or 24 h). Concentrations of 3331+/-45 and 3334+/-39 microg g(-1) (mean and one standard deviation, n = 4) for SeMet were obtained using 200 mg (72 h incubation) and 400 mg (24 h incubation) of protease XIV, respectively, in agreement with a value of 3404+/-38 microg g(-1) obtained using a methanesulfonic acid reflux.

Abstract
Most studies of selenium and thyroid hormone have used sodium selenite in rats. However, rats regulate thyroid hormone differently, and selenite, which has unique pharmacologic activities, does not occur in foods. We hypothesized that selenium in food would have different effects in humans. Healthy men were fed foods naturally high or low in selenium for 120 d while confined to a metabolic research unit. Selenium intake for all subjects was 47 microg/d (595 nmol/d) for the first 21 d, and then changed to either 14 (n = 6) or 297 (n = 5) microg/d (177 nmol/d or 3.8 micromol/d) for the remaining 99 d, causing significant changes in blood selenium and glutathione peroxidase. Serum 3,3',5-triiodothyronine (T3) decreased in the high selenium group, increased in the low selenium group, and was significantly different between groups from d 45 onward. A compensatory increase of thyrotropin occurred in the high selenium group as T3 decreased. The changes in T3 were opposite in direction to those reported in rats, but were consistent with other metabolic changes. By d 64, the high selenium group started to gain weight, whereas the low selenium group began to lose weight, and the weight changes were significantly different between groups from d 92 onward. Decreases of serum T3 and compensatory increases in thyrotropin suggest that a subclinical hypothyroid response was induced in the high selenium group, leading to body weight increases. Increases of serum T3 and serum triacylglycerol accompanied by losses of body fat suggest that a subclinical hyperthyroid response was induced in the low selenium group, leading to body weight decreases.
