A method for simultaneous determination of the selenium species methylselenocysteine (MeSeCys), selenocysteine (SeCys2), selenite (SeIV), selenomethionine (SeMet), and selenates (SeVI) in natural selenium-enriched bamboo shoots was developed. Samples were extracted using sonication with a solution of pepsin. Different selenium species were separated using an anion exchange column with isocratic elution and a citric acid mobile phase at pH 4.7. Separated selenium species were detected as 80Se using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) in dynamic reaction cell (DRC) gas mode. The method achieved acceptable quantitative recoveries of 73.9 to 113.4% with relative standard deviations of 2, Se, MeSeCys, SeMet, and Se, respectively. The method was simple, rapid, accurate, and useful for determination of selenium species in natural selenium enriched bamboo shoots.
