Abstract
We separated blood from five healthy blood donors into plasma, erythrocytes, platelets, and leukocytes; counted the number of cells in each fraction; and determined the selenium content of each component by hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry. The mean (+/- SD) selenium concentrations and amounts measured were as follows: whole blood 102.3 +/- 16.1 micrograms/L, plasma 76.9 +/- 10.6 micrograms/L, erythrocytes 13.7 +/- 2.8 ag per cell, platelets 4.8 +/- 1.1 ag per cell, and leukocytes 99 +/- 26 ag per cell.
