“…1980). As a result, domestic farm animals fed on local feeds only, are often very deficient in selenium, and correspondingly low levels of selenium have been demonstrated in animal products (Karlsen et al, 1981). Selenium has therefore been added to feeding stuffs in Norway since 1980 at a rate of 0.15 mg S e k g compound concentrates or in corresponding amounts in mineral mixtures and supplementary feeds.…”

The effect of selenium supplementation of animal feeds in Nonray. Received Sept. 26, 1984. Acta Agric. Scand. 35: [139][140][141][142][143][144] 1985. Selenium supplementation of feeds HDS introduced in Nonmy in 1980. The effect of this supplementation on selenium status of animals has been investigated. In general, the supplementation resulted in increased selenium levels in animals as well as in animal products. The supply of selenium seems to be quite satisfactory as regards poultry and slaughter pigs while there seem to be indications of a further increase in the supply in young, rapidly growing pigs, and especially ruminants. Based on food consumption data, the higher levels of selenium represent an increase in human intake of about 5-10 pg selenium per day.

“…Most of the samples of native plant species from a mountain area of central Norway had low selenium contents (Garmo et al, 1986). When only feedstuff produced locally is used in animal husbandry, products like milk and meat have a low selenium level (Karlsen et al, 1981).…”

“…In Finland, inadequate Se intake caused nutritional disorders in pigs and reduced the profitability of the production. As a result, all commercial animal feeds have been supplemented with selenite since 1969 [8], followed by Denmark in 1975, Norway in 1979 [21] and Sweden in 1980.…”

Abstract"s counteract against deiciency in livestock, dietary treatments are supplemented with selenium Se , usually as the inorganic form sodium selenite SS . Since Se is considered as toxic as well as an essential element, SS is added to prevent an increase of Se in edible chicken parts. However, in many countries, populations sufer from suboptimal Se intake and even Se deiciency, by increasing the use of organic Se sources such as Seenriched yeast or wheat in animal feed, there will be a subsequent increase in meat and egg products for human consumption. One could argue that the chickens do not need the extra pool of Se in muscles, as the inorganic form will be suicient to meet the chickens Se requirements. Since the feed is fortiied with selenite, the chickens will always have adequate access to the essential trace element. However, global gene set functional enrichment analysis revealed statistically signiicant enrichment of a number of biological processes that were dependent on the Se feed sources, such as cell growth, organ development and protein metabolism in favour of organic Se.
