Sodium Selenite Powder plays a crucial role in dietary supplements, antimicrobial agents, cancer research, and food preservation.
- Description
- Product Information
Sodium Selenite used as a dietary supplement. This chemical can lead genotoxic effects on cells because of its strong reducing property. Sodium Selenite that is a byproduct of refining crude oil, can use as an anti-microbial agent against fungi, yeasts, and bacteria.
Sodium Selenite has applications in medicine and healthcare to treat selenium deficiency. Its antibacterial properties are useful for controlling microbial growth in clinical and research settings.
Because sodium selenium inhibits oxidative stress and DNA damage, it plays an important role in cancer research. Researchers look at its capacity to scavenge free radicals and suppress cell division, which may prevent the growth of tumors.
Sodium Selenite is a preservative used in the food industry that extends product shelf life. However, because of potential selenium toxicity and negative health effects, caution in its usage is advised.
