Abstract

Selenium is a crucial micronutrient for human well-being, with significant contributions to antioxidant, anti-ageing, and antiviral activities. However, over one billion people globally struggle with selenium deficiency, leading to a pressing need for selenium supplementation. Conventional selenium-enrich food from plants and animals provides challenges in achieving precise selenium supplementation. Thus, it is crucial to discover selenium carriers that can be cultured in a controlled environment. Multiple studies have shown that microalgae are excellent carriers for selenium enrichment due to their rapid growth, suitability for plant consumption, ease of industrialization, high efficiency in converting organic selenium, and many others. This review focuses on single-celled microalgae, comprehensively reviewing their metabolic pathway, biological transformation, and valuable forms of selenium. Additionally, it forecasts the current application status and prospects of selenium-enriched microalgae in agriculture and global human health. This review provides a reference for the industrial supply of precise selenium-rich raw materials.

微藻：生物富硒的良好载体。

硒是一种对人类健康至关重要的微量营养元素，在抗氧化、抗衰老和抗病毒方面具有重要作用。然而，全球有超过 10 亿人面临缺硒问题，因此迫切需要补充硒元素。传统的动植物富硒食品在实现精确补硒方面存在挑战。因此，发现可在受控环境中培养的硒载体至关重要。多项研究表明，微藻具有生长迅速、适合植物食用、易于工业化、有机硒转化效率高等优点，是极佳的富硒载体。本综述以单细胞微藻为重点，全面回顾了它们的代谢途径、生物转化和有价值的硒形式。此外，它还预测了富硒微藻在农业和全球人类健康领域的应用现状和前景。本综述为工业供应精确的富硒原材料提供了参考。
