Sprouts enriched with selenium offer increased nutritional value and chemopreventive properties raising interest in their contribution to the human diet. The effect of selenium depends on its concentration and the chemical forms. The aims of this study were: to synthesize several novel organic selenium compounds (selenoesters), to examine how effectively they can deliver selenium to Brassica sprouts, and investigate their metabolism in sprouts. We revealed that selenium content in the fortified sprouts was several orders of magnitude higher than in the unfortified ones. There were significant differences between doses of selenium delivered to sprouts by different selenium compounds. A small percentage of supplemented selenium ( |
