ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT: Selenium (Se) fertilization in grazing to biofortification of animal products have been carried out in low Se soils. The objective of this study was to increase the Se content in the biomass of Brachiaria spp.with urea coated with Se. The experiment was performed in a typical Hapludox soil under greenhouse conditions. A completely randomized block design with four replicates in a factorial structure with two cuts and six Se doses (0, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 160gha-1) was used. The Brachiaria brizantha demonstrated the absence of changes in higher harmful doses without modifying the activity of glutathione peroxidase enzyme. We concluded that enrichment of Brachiaria brizantha with coated urea is obtained with 34.5gha-1of Se.
RESUMO: A adubação com Selênio (Se) em pastagem para a biofortificação de alimentos de origem animal tem sido realizada em solos com baixo Se. O objetivo foi avaliar o aumento no conteúdo de Se na biomassa de Brachiaria spp. com aplicação de ureia revestida com Se. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação em Latossolo Amarelo. O delineamento foi em blocos casualizados com quatro repetições em esquema fatorial com dois cortes e seis doses de Se (0, 10, 20, 40, 80 e 160gha-1). A Brachiaria brizantha demonstrou ausência de mudanças em altas e perigosas doses de Se sem alterar a atividade da enzima antioxidante glutationa peroxidase. Com isso, concluiu-se que seu enriquecimento com ureia revestida é obtida com 34,5gha-1 de Se.
ABSTRACT
Purpose:To study the effect of sodium selenate on the viability and proliferation of PC-3 cell, a kind of human prostate cancer cell. Methods:Sodium selenate was administered to PC-3 cells, and MTT assay and ~(3)H-TdR adulterated assay were used to estimate the viability and proliferation of cell. Results:① When cells were treated with Sodium selenate for 24 h, the optical density (A) of middle-dose group decreased significantly, and the A of the high-dose group decreased dramatically. When cells were treated for 24 h, the A of the low-dose group was significantly lower than that of the control group, while the A of the middle-dose and high-dose groups was much lower than control.② When cells were treated for 24 h, the proliferation of middle-dose group decreased, and that of high-dose group decreased markedly. Conclusions:Sodium selenate can inhibit the viability and proliferation of PC-3 cells, and these actions occur in a dose-dependant manner.
