Elemental selenium is nontoxic, hydrogen selenide and other selenium compounds are extremely toxic and resemble arsenic in their physiological reactions.
In high doses, selenium is toxic. I'm not sure if that means the answer is "yes" or "no": Yes, you CAN take "too much" selenium, and No, it's not a good idea to do so.
Jons Jacob was the man to discover Selenium.
Yes. Samples of aluminium selenide must be protected from moisture, because the compound hydrolyzes readily, giving off highly toxic hydrogen selenide gas:Al2Se3 + 3 H2O ---> Al2O3 + 3 H2Se
This compound is called selenium hexafluoride.
Selenium, atomic number 34.
Selenium has been shown to slow patterns of certain hair loss. Although this is usually caused by an excess amount of testosterone in the woman's system. This is usually caused by a lack of estrogen, which causes the effects of testosterone to be more visible. Try eating some Brazil nuts, which is rich in selenium...
