title: [Selenium concentration in serum of women with thyroid gland disease].
abstract: The aim of this study was to estimate the concentration of total selenium in serum women with thyroid gland disease. Selenium was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry using the hydride generation technique (HG-AAS). Selenium was determined in 30 patients with thyroid gland disease and in 12 healthy controls. Selenium concentration of serum was variously in patients than in control group and patients with different thyroid gland disease. The average concentration of selenium in control group was 0.0694 microg/ml, in goiter group 0.0529 microg/ml, in hyperactivity group 0.0441 microg/ml, in hypofunction group 0.0520 microg/ml.g/ml.
