Benzyl selenocyanate (BSC), a synthetic organoselenium compound, has been shown to inhibit chemically induced tumors in several animal model systems. However, it is not known whether BSC or one of its metabolites is responsible for the chemopreventive effect. An initial

We report on the use of block copolymer micelles of polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PS-b-PAA) as matrixes for incorporating dibenzyl diselenide. We found that the water-insoluble diselenide, after being incorporated into the micelles, demonstrates glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity in water. Surprisingly, the

Our previous studies have demonstrated that dietary benzylselenocyanate (BSC) and 1,4-phenylenebis (methylene) selenocyanate (p-XSC); organoselenium compounds, act as potential chemopreventive agents in colon carcinogenesis in F344 rats. As a part of a program aimed to develop less toxic and more
