Biological Functions and Application in Livestock and Poultry Production of Selenomethionine
Selenomethionine(Se-Met)is the main form of selenium obtained by animals from plant feed mate-rials,and it has a variety of biological functions such as anti-oxidation,anti-inflammation,anti-virus.It plays a positive role in improving the performance of livestock and poultry,improving the quality of animal prod-ucts,and alleviating the stress in these animals.In this paper,by analyzing domestic and international litera-tures in recent years,the main biological functions of selenomethionine such as anti-oxidation,anti-inflamma-tion,anti-virus,and its mechanism of action,and its application in livestock and poultry production,in order to provide theoretical reference for the efficient application of selenomethionine in livestock and poultry produc-tion.[Chinese Journal of Animal Nutrition,2024,36(4):2155-2162]
