French term or phrase: French: levure seleniee, hypromellose.
Can anyone help me with any of these terms, please? I have ideas about some of them, or rather parts of some of them. The context is a product called Selenium-ACE 75 mcg., which I believe is a dietary supplement.

selenium yeast / hypromellose
Explanation:
Hypromellose
This is a chemical compound made up of cellulose. This has properties similar to that of methylcellulose. Its major use is in the pharmaceutical industry. It is used to coat tablets, bind drug products and mask the unwanted flavours of the tablets. It dissolves in water forming a colloidal solution and can be used as a suspender and emulsifier in various ointments. It is also used in eye preparations to enhance clarity. It can also be included in artificial saliva and tear preparations. It is therefore used in the management of conditions associated with dry eyes.

Selenium Sulphide

Dans cette étude réalisée chez la souris, 3 formes de sélénium (sélénite de sodium, sélénométhionine, levure séléniée) ont été étudiées à des doses différentes. Le rein est un modèle de choix pour ce type d'étude puisque c'est l'organe où le sélénium est le plus concentré du fait de la présence de plusieurs enzymes sélénodépendante. De plus, la répartition du sélénium physiologique rénal est très particulière : l'élément est détecté principalement dans les tubules proximaux et présente un site d'accumulation au niveau de la lame basale.
