Three bacterial strains efficiently reduce selenite to selenium nanoparticles in cell membranes

Abstract Microbial synthesis of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) as a fertilizer can promote the development of selenium-rich agricultural products. However, most known selenium-reduction strains exhibit a tolerance to selenite of ≤ 100 mmol/L and possess relatively low reduction efficiency. In this s...
