Journal Article
Belay, A., Joy, E. J., Chagumaira, C., Zerfu, D., Ander, E. L., Young, S. D., …Gashu, D. (2020). Selenium Deficiency Is Widespread and Spatially Dependent in Ethiopia. Nutrients, 12(6), Article 1565. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu12061565

: Selenium (Se) is an essential element for human health and livestock productivity. Globally, human Se status is highly variable, mainly due to the influence of soil types on the Se content of crops, suggesting the need to identify areas of deficien...

Urine selenium concentration is a useful biomarker for assessing population level selenium status (2019)
Journal Article
Phiri, F. P., Ander, E. L., Lark, R. M., Bailey, E. H., Chilima, B., Gondwe, J., …Broadley, M. R. (2020). Urine selenium concentration is a useful biomarker for assessing population level selenium status. Environment International, 134, Article 105218. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2019.105218

Plasma selenium (Se) concentration is an established population level biomarker of Se status, especially in Se-deficient populations. Previously observed correlations between dietary Se intake and urinary Se excretion suggest that urine Se concentrat...

Journal Article
Joy, E. J., Kumssa, D. B., Broadley, M. R., Watts, M. J., Young, S. D., Chilimba, A. D. C., & Ander, E. L. (2015). Dietary mineral supplies in Malawi: spatial and socioeconomic assessment. BMC Nutrition, 1, Article 42. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40795-015-0036-4

Background
Dietary mineral deficiencies are widespread globally causing a large disease burden. However, estimates of deficiency prevalence are often only available at national scales or for small population sub-groups with limited relevance for pol...

Liver s... Read More about Liver copper concentrations in cull cattle in the UK: are cattle being copper loaded?.

Global magnesium supply in the food chain (2015)
Journal Article
Kumssa, D. B., Joy, E. J., Ander, E. L., Watts, M. J., Young, S. D., Rosanoff, A., …Broadley, M. R. (2015). Global magnesium supply in the food chain. Crop and Pasture Science, 66(12), 1278-1289. https://doi.org/10.1071/CP15096

© CSIRO 2015. Magnesium (Mg) is an essential mineral micronutrient in humans. Risks of dietary Mg deficiency are affected by the quantity of Mg ingested and its bioavailability, which is influenced by the consumption of other nutrients and 'anti-nutr...
