Protective effects of novel organic selenium compounds against oxidative stress in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans

Organic selenium compounds possess numerous biological properties, including antioxidant activity. Yet, the high toxicity of some of them, such as diphenyl diselenide (DPDS), is a limiting factor in their current usage. Accordingly, we tested four novel organic selenium compounds in the non-parasite...
