“…Today, modern ICP-MS instruments can avoid the strong interferences of Ar compounds ( 38 Ar 40 Ar þ or 40 Ar 40 Ar þ ) on Se isotopes ( 78 Se þ or 80 Se þ ), by HR or with collision/ reaction cells. The status of total selenium in blood, serum, or urine was described for many countries, such as Germany [69,70], Canada [71], Iran [72], Kuwait [73], USA [74], Japan [75], Taiwan [76], India [77], Singapore [78], Switzerland [79], Spain [80], but only in a few cases ICP-MS was applied for biomonitoring of total Se [8,35,65,79].…”

“…Iodine is monoisotopic, and for the isotope 127 I no significant interferences were found for its determination in plasma or urine. For the determination of Br, the authors recommended the isotope 79 Br, because some interferences have to be considered for the isotope 81 Br, mainly 40 Ar 40 Ar 1 H.…”

“…However, at this time the authors pointed out that the dietary intake of this element depended mainly on the Se concentration of imported foods (Haldimann, Venner, et al 1996). Between 2005 and 2006, a follow-up study for the determination of the serum Se status of the Swiss population was carried out in order to check to what extent the changes at the food import market and in particular the changes at the grain market influenced the local Se status (Burri et al 2008). The concentration of the serum Se of the healthy adult population did not decrease as supposed initially.…”

The selenium concentration in foods was analysed in order to identify principal sources of this trace element in Switzerland. Selenium intake estimations based on three different approaches were carried out. From the relationship between intake and serum/plasma concentration, the selenium intake was estimated to 66 µg day(-1). The second approach based on measured food groups combined with consumption statistics; and the third approach consisted of duplicate meal samples. With the last two methods, over 75% of the serum/plasma based intake was confirmed. Swiss pasta made of North American durum wheat was the food with the highest contribution to the dietary intake, followed by meat. The strong decrease in imports of selenium-rich North American wheat of the last years was not reflected in the present intake estimations. It appears that this intake loss was compensated by a consumption increase of other foods. Compared with former intake estimations, selenium intake seems to be in Switzerland nearly constant for the last 25 years.

“…Dietary deficiency may be due to absence (parenteral nutrition) or because the zinc in the diet is bound to phytate (fiber) and not available for absorption. Excess copper and iron in the diet (eg, iron supplements) interfere with zinc uptake (Skelton et al, 2006;Burri et al, 2008).…”

Background: HbSS and HbSC are a group of genetic blood disorders. They are examples of sickle cell diseases.The complication of sickle cell disease could affect spleen, brain, eyes, lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, penis, joints, bones, or skin. Aim and Objective: This work was designed to measure plasma ALT, AST, Albumin,Se, Zn and Uric acid in HbSS and HbSC patients in Saki-West Local Government area of Oyo state-Nigeria. Materials and Methods: HbSS and HbSC patients in crisis and in non-crisis steady state classified into HbSC (n=25) and HbSS (n=25) aged 10 to 31 years were recruited as test subjects for the study. Apparently healthy 50 HbAA volunteers classified into female (n=25) and male (n=25) aged 10 -50 years were also studied as control. Subjects residing in Saki-West for not less than 5 years were recruited as test and control subjects. Plasma Albumin, Uric acid, ALT(Alanine Transaminase), AST(Aspartate Trans aminase) were determined biochemically bt spectrophotometry.Plasma Zn (Zinc) and Se (Selenium) were measured by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry. Results: The result obtained showed a significantly higher mean value of plasma ALT and AST in HbSC and HbSS than HbAA with p<0.05. The result also showed a significantly lower plasma selenium mean value in HbSC and HbSS than HbAA with p<0.05 This biochemical alterations including plasma Zn was more in crisis than in non-crisis steady state. Conclusion and Recommendation: Decreased plasma level of Selenium and increased plasma AST and ALT were found in HbSS and HbSC patients. This biochemical alterations including plasma Zn was more in crisis than in non-crisis steady state.
