Comparative effects of selenium nanoparticles and sodium selenite on selenium bioaccumulation in quail tissues and its transfer to progeny

Selenium nanoparticles (Se-NPs) and sodium selenite (SS) play key roles in avian health, but differ in absorption and toxicity. This study compared their effects on growth, productivity, and selenium bioaccumulation in adult quails and hatchlings (up to 2 weeks post-hatch). A total of 480 quails (8...
