Skin selenium content measured by hydride generation and atomic absorption spectroscopy.
The concentration of selenium in skin was measured using hydride generation and atomic absorption spectroscopy. The method used in this study was shown to be both accurate and precise, with mean recoveries of 92%-98% of added selenium and a within run relative standard deviation of better than 7% at a selenium concentration of less than 12 nmol/g dry tissue. The method is suitable for rapid analysis of large numbers of samples.
