In this work, 13 selenium species in flue gas desulfurization (FGD) waters from coal-fired power plants were separated and quantified using anion-exchange chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. For the first time, we identified both selenosulfate (SeSO(3)(2-)) and

In a previous study, selenocyanate was tentatively identified as a biotransformation product when green algae were exposed to environmentally relevant concentrations of selenate. In this follow-up study, we confirm conclusively the presence of selenocyanate in Chlorella vulgaris culture medium by

A series of novel organoselenocyanate compounds (6a-d) having spiro[tetralin-1,3'-pyrrolidine] moiety were synthesized. The compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against cadmium- (Cd) induced toxicity in Swiss Albino mice. All the compounds (6a-d) inhibited the level of lipid peroxidation (LPO)
