Selenium accumulation in mycelia of Flammulina velutipes during fermentation determined by RP-HPLC.
A method to estimate the content of selenium in organics was introduced based on reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC).The maximum absorption peak of piazselenol was at 330 nm and the optimized temperature and pH value were 40 degrees C and 2.8, respectively. The minimum detection concentration of selenium(IV) was 0.06 microg/mL and the measurable range was 0.12-12.0 microg/mL. The organic selenium accumulation in golden needle mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) mycelia was obtained by subtracting the amount of inorganic selenium from that of total selenium. The organic selenium accumulation of various inoculation amounts showed that organic selenium accumulation in a unit volume of the fermentation broth was positively related the inoculation amount. Compared with the methods reported previously, the method used here is simple, reliable and less toxic.
