Expert Verdict

Total selenium content must be quantified per batch; excessive Se is toxic (selenosis). No published CPSR-grade toxicology package for this specific ferment exists. NOAEL for dietary Se is 400 µg/day (US IOM); topical contribution must remain well below systemic concern. Recommend ICP-MS selenium assay on each lot.
