Photosynthetic microorganisms enriched in selenium using selenohydroxy acid compounds, uses thereof in nutrition, cosmetics and pharmacy

摘要

The invention relates to the enrichment of photosynthetic microorganisms in organic selenium using selenohydroxy acid compounds, in particular 2-hydroxy-4-methylselenobutanoic acid, in D or L form, or an enantiomer, salt or ester or amide derivative of these compounds, and also to the use of the microorganisms thus enriched in animal or human nutrition, in cosmetics or in pharmacy.
