Cellular and Subcellular Distribution of Selenium and Selenium-Containing Proteins in the Rat

Abstract

"Proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Trace Elements in Man and Animals, held in May 2-7, 1999 in Evian, France"--Title page verso. This volume presents recent progress in the research of the functional role and metabolism of trace elements, and new developments in the understanding of molecular and cellular biology. Also included are results of major trials demonstrating beneficial aspects of selenium on human health. Underwood Memorial Lecture -- I.
