Product Description
L-SelenoMethionine is the L-isomer of Selenomethionine, the main natural food form of selenium. L-SelenoMethionine is a cancer chemopreventive agent that can reduce the incidence of cancer and cause apoptosis in cancer/tumor cells through dietary supplementation. L-SelenoMethionine also increases glutathione peroxidase expression.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Prostate cancer cells are selectively inhibited from growing when exposed to L-selenomethylthionine (1-500 μM; 24-72 h) in comparison to normal cells [2]. Prostate cancer cells undergo apoptosis when exposed to 500 μM of selenium [2]. Prostate cancer cells are selectively subjected to increased G2-M cell cycle arrest when exposed to 500 μM of seleniumethionine for 48 hours [2]. Gene expression linked to the cellular stress response to 10 cGy radiation is suppressed by L-selenomethionine (5 μM; 24 hours) [4].
ln Vivo
In rats exposed to gamma rays, protons, or HZE particles, L-selenomethionine (0.06–12 μg/g diet; orally for 3 days) either partially or totally reversed the decline in serum or plasma total antioxidant levels [5].

Additional Infomation
L-selenomethionine is the L-enantiomer of selenomethionine. It is an enantiomer of a D-selenomethionine. It is a tautomer of a L-selenomethionine zwitterion.
L-selenomethionine has been reported in Brassica oleracea, Allium sativum, and other organisms with data available.
L-Selenomethionine is the amino acid methionine with selenium substituting for the sulphur moiety. Methionine is an essential amino acid in humans, whereas selenium is a free-radical scavenging anti-oxidant, essential for the protection of various tissues from the damages of lipid peroxidation. As a trace mineral that is toxic in high doses, selenium is a cofactor for glutathione peroxidase, an anti-oxidant enzyme that neutralizes hydrogen peroxide. L-Selenomethionine is considered a safe, efficacious form of selenium and is readily bioavailable. Selenium may be chemoprotective for certain cancers, particularly prostate cancer. (NCI04)

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
