Green synthesis, characterization and functional validation of bio-transformed selenium nanoparticles.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Selenium, an essential micronutrient with potent anticancer and antioxidant properties, the inorganic form of selenium is highly toxic, while organic and elemental nanoforms are more bioavailable and less toxic and have gained attention owing to their dietary and clinical relevance. This study aims to optimize conditions for the biosynthesis and production of elemental selenium nanoparticles for selenium supplements using marine microalgae, Nannochloropsis oceanica CASA CC201. The 10 mM precursor solution treated with 1 % of the algal extract (10:1 ratio of precursor and algal extract, respectively) was shown to be the optimal concentration for synthesizing highly stable selenium nanoparticles with a size of 183 nm and a zeta potential of -38.5 mV. AFM and TEM analysis suggest that the spherical-shaped nanoparticles with smooth surfaces were polydispersely distributed. The nanoparticles are well characterized using various analytical and advanced techniques, including Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. FT-IR analyses reveal the presence of microalgae proteins and peptides as stabilizing and fabricating agents of Se-NPs to further understand the mode of bioreduction. The synthesized elemental nanoform (Se
