Investigations of Possible Mechanisms to Explain the Se-Hg Antagonism in Aquatic Organisms

摘要：

Introduction Numerous studies on the antagonistic effects of selenium (Se) against mercury (Hg) toxicity have been documented (see reviews by Cuvin-Aralar and Fumess, 199t; Berry and Ralston, 2008; Yang et al., 2008; Khan and Wang, 2009). Several studies have indicated that a treatment with selenite to a lake could reduce the bioaccumulation of Hg in aquatic life (Turner and Rudd, 1983; Paulsson and Lundberg, 1989, 1991). The protective effect of Se in limiting the assimilation and toxicity of Hg has been clearly demonstrated in our laboratory and field studies around the mining area of Sudbury, Canada.
