Abstract

The concept of bioavailability of organic and mineral forms of selenium is considered. The influence of the domestic drug selenopyran on the functional activity of the antioxidant-antiradical defense system of the body is described. The role and significance of selenopyran in increasing productivity and nonspecific resistance in animals and poultry is discussed.
