What is it about?

The main goal of the present study was to synthesize and characterize different formulations based on alginate and alginate/chitosan microspheres containing nano-selenium for controlled delivery applications.

Why is it important?

Our formulation based on alginate/chitosan is a convenient matrix to be used for selenium delivery in duodenum, caecum and colon.

Perspectives

Nano-selenium maintained a low level of crystallinity within the final composites, which implies an advantageous formulation for the purpose of controlled release.
