“…The highest Se concentrations were in the kidneys, followed by liver, pancreas, lungs, brain and muscle, which had the lowest Se concentrations in mg/kg. This distribution pattern of Se found in different organs and tissues was in accordance with patterns reported by others (Nakayama et al, 2007;Anan et al, 2012). Anan et al (2012) followed the uptake of selenite and SeMet in Japanese quail and reported that the Se uptake to internal organs of SeMet was much higher than from selenite.…”

Inorganic selenium (Se) in the form of selenite is applied to livestock to avoid Se deficiency. Selenite is, however, an artificial Se source in diets of unsupplemented chickens. It is therefore hypothesized that organic Se sources, such as Se-enriched yeast and wheat, could be a more suitable Se supply in animal nutrition, although information on the transition of Se from organic Se sources in fast-growing chickens is scarce. In this work, chickens were fed a low Se diet (0.27 ± 0.01 mg Se/kg, Se-enriched yeast) until 20 days of age, after which the Se concentration was increased to maximum concentration allowed by the poultry industry in Europe (0.5 p.p.m. Se). At the same time, a daily contribution of carrier-free (75)Se tracer from labelled wheat was administered from day 20 to 27. The chickens showed S and Se homeostasis, as the concentration of S and Se in liver, blood or kidney remained about constant, and steady state of S and Se in the other organs was reached 1 day after the diet shift. The uptake of (75)Se was readily seen in all organs. After 1 week, the depuration of the (75)Se tracer was followed, and biological half-lives and retention in individual organs were determined. The shortest biological half-lives were observed in major metabolic organs, the liver, kidney and pancreas with half-lives close to 4 days. There was a significant (p < 0.05) uptake in lung, brain and muscle that reached steady state when the administration of (75)Se was terminated. The half-life of (75)Se in heart was 9 days and 7 days in blood. The longest half-lives were observed in muscle (12 days), brain and lungs (13 days). All half-lives were shorter than in Se deplete animals.

“…There is little information concerning relationship between Se in muscle or other tissues and feather of poultry. Quails fed drinking water with added SS or SeMet had the highest Se concentrations in the pancreas, followed by the down feathers, liver, and kidney [30]. Sevcikova et al [4] observed that Se concentrations in breast muscle and feather of 35-d-old broilers increased accordingly with dietary Se supplementation.…”

Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of dietary selenium (Se) from Se-enriched kale sprout (SeKS), selenomethionine (SeMet), and sodium selenite (SS) on performance, carcass characteristics and Se concentrations in the tissues, and to study the relationship between Se concentrations in muscle and feather in growing quails.Methods: The 320 quails (7 d of age) were divided into four treatments, according to a completely randomized design. The treatments were T1: control diet; T2, T3, and T4: control diets plus 0.2 mg Se/kg from SS, SeMet, and SeKS, respectively. The performance, carcass characteristics, and Se concentrations in the tissues of quails were determined.Results: The results indicated no effect (p>0.05) of Se supplementation on performance, carcass characteristics and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity in breast muscle of quails. Supplemental Se from SS, SeMet, and SeKS increased greater (p<0.05) Se concentrations in breast muscle, liver, kidney, heart, and feather, compared to those of quails fed the control diet. Quails fed Se from SeMet had greater (p<0.05) Se concentrations in the tissues than quails fed Se from SeKS and SS. In addition, Se concentrations in breast muscle and feather of quails at 21 and 42-d-old were highly correlated (R<sup>2</sup> 0.714 to 0.756) (p<0.05).Conclusion: Performance, carcass characteristics and GSH-Px activity in breast muscle of quails were not affected (p>0.05) by dietary Se supplementation. The Se from SeMet was more effective in increasing Se concentrations in the tissues of quails than Se from SeKS and SS. Feather Se concentrations of 21 and 42-d-old quails can be used for assessment of Se bioavailability of Se sources.

“…Currently, four selenosugars were identified in liver, serum and urine of quail [34], turtle [35], rat [36], porcine [37], and human [38], including methyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-1-seleno-β-D-galactopyranoside (selenosugar 1) [39,40], methyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-1-seleno-β-D-glucosopyranoside (selenosugar 2) [40], and methyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-1-seleno-β-D-galactopyranoside (selenosugar 3) [40] and selenosugar A [41]. In urine samples, selenosugar 1 is the major metabolite.…”

Mercury (Hg), arsenic (As) and selenium (Se) are ubiquitous in the environment and exist in a variety of species, which have great influence on their transport, bioaccumulation and toxicity. This review presents the recent research progress in speciation analysis of Hg, As, and Se, with emphasis on enhanced cold vapor generation as interface for liquid chromatography and atomic spectrometry, speciation of volatile species in gas phase, and isotope dilution technique to improve the precision and accuracy of speciation. Hyphenated techniques to characterize the complexes of Hg and As with phytochelatins and chromatographic separation coupled with multi-collector-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to measure species-specific isotopic ratios, are also briefly discussed. Mercury (Hg) and arsenic (As) are among the most highly toxic elements for humans and ecosystems and can cause serious environmental and human health problems even at low concentrations [1,2]. Selenium (Se) is an "essential toxin" for human health. It has been recognized as an important antioxidant and anti-cancer element. However, Se can also pose negative impact such as defective skin and hair loss [3]. The adsorption/uptake, transport, bioaccumulation, metabolism and toxicity of these elements strongly depend on their chemical species present in environmental and biological samples. In the environment, one species can transform to another through chemical or biological processes. For example, in anaerobic sediments, sulfur-reducing or iron-reducing bacteria can methylate inorganic mercury into highly toxic methylmercury (MeHg) [4,5]. Therefore, speciation analysis of Hg, As and Se is of great importance in order to elucidate the biogeochemcal cycle and toxicology of these elements. Speciation analysis mainly involves chromatographic separation (gas chromatography (GC) or high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)) hyphenated with element-specific spectrometry or molecular mass spectrometry. This review presents the recent advances in speciation analysis of Hg, As, and Se based on chromatographic separation, with emphasis on enhanced cold vapor generation (CVG) as interface for LC and atomic spectrometry, speciation of volatile Hg, As and Se in gas phase, and isotope dilution technique to improve the precision and accuracy of speciation. Hyphenated techniques to characterize the complexes of Hg and As with phytochelatins and chromatographic separation coupled with multi-collector-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS) to measure species-specific isotopic ratios, are also briefly introduced.
