[Convulsive properties of various organoselenium compounds]
Comptes Rendus Des Seances De La Societe De Biologie Et De Ses Filiales
|January 1, 1978
Abstract:
Three organo-selenium compounds have been synthetized : methyl seleno-2 benzoic acid, acetylseleno-2 benzoic acid and diselenosalicylic acid. These compounds induce convulsive seizures in the rat, the most active of them being methyl seleno 2 benzoic acid. Convulsions are stopped after anaesthesia with pentobarbitone.
