Abstract
Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary research area with the potential to revolutionize a
number of research fields, including food technology, biomedicine and biotechnologies. Selenium is a trace element essential for the appropriate course of vital processes in the human body, It is also a constituent of the active center of glutathione peroxidise that protects cellular membranes against the adverse effects of lipid peroxides.
