The chemical treatment of the yeast biomass was done with sodium-selenite solution. The preparation of selenium 每 enriched Saccharomyces uvarum in different conditions of temperature, time, yeast biomass proportion and sodium-selenite concentration of the medium was analysed. Using a culture mediumsupplemented with 30每180 米g/ ml sodium-selenite results in total selenium accumulation in the range of 0.6每2.2 mg/g for malt wort and 0.4每1.6 mg/g for sparge water and in organic selenium accumulation in the range of 0.6每1.5 mg/g for malt wort and 0.3每0.9 mg/g for sparge water measured by ICP- MS method. %K organic selenium %K sparge water %K malt wort %K sodium-selenite %U http://www.ann.ugal.ro/tpa/Annals%202011/vol%201/5%20MarinescuG.pdf
