Abstract:

This item is not the definitive copy. Please use the following citation when referencing this material: McKnight, C., Dillon, A. and Richardson, J. (1992) Hypermedia. In A. Kent (Ed.) Encyclopedia of Library and Information Science, Vol. 50, New York: Marcel Dekker, 226-255. Overview: The field of hypertext/hypermedia has mushroomed so much in the last five years that an article such as this cannot hope to be all-embracing. Rather, what we will do is provide a perspective on hypertext/hypermedia while offering guidance to the published literature. The perspective we give is essentially user-centred since we believe that ultimately it is user issues which will determine the success or failure of any technology. We begin with a brief introduction and history then draw together some of the relevant research which has a bearing on hypertext/hypermedia usability. Some of this research has been conducted specifically in the field of hypertext but some general human-computer interaction research also needs to be considered. We look briefly at some of the issues involved in creating hypertexts and also at some of the claims made for hypertext. Finally, we attempt to see what the future holds for hypertext and offer a list of further reading.

Abstract:

Les pastiches-Zola constituent un signe de réception de l’œuvre zolienne. Le style de l’auteur des Rougon-Macquart est toujours ciblé plus d’un siècle après sa mort par les auteurs de ce type de réécriture. Notre travail de recherche pose le problème de l’appropriation mimétique et/ou différentielle des pastiches-Zola postérieurs à sa mort. La question centrale à traiter est celle de savoir comment Zola est imité dans ces pastiches. Le pastiche implique le phénomène de reprise textuelle qui est caractérisé par l’existence de deux types de textes : l’hypertexte (texte dérivé) et l’hypotexte (texte imité). Une approche comparative associée aux théories de l’intertextualité et de l’hypertextualité nous a permis de découvrir que les pasticheurs de Zola s’inspirent de ses romans et des œuvres d’autres auteurs célèbres. Ils produisent ainsi des pastiches à hypotexte simple, double ou multiple. Les pastiches-Zola se distinguent aussi par leur visée interne (littéraire) ou externe (politique, publicitaire). Les pastiches à visées externes montrent que leurs auteurs documentent les faits sociaux de leur époque comme le faisait Zola. Certains pasticheurs font preuve d’engagement (littéraire) en s’attaquant, mais de manière indirecte, aux personnalités politiques de leur époque. En plus de leurs intentions, leur représentation du style de Zola diversifie leurs productions écrites. Chaque pasticheur obéit à certaines règles d’imitation liées de manière générale aux principes de ressemblance et de différence. Certains pastiches sont ainsi plus inventifs et/ou plus représentatifs du style zolien que d’autres. L’étude des manières imitantes des pasticheurs permet de mener une réflexion sur la notion du style dont les définitions paraissent floues. Les pasticheurs ne s’attardent plus seulement sur la thématique zolienne qui a été très critiquée de son vivant et même après sa mort. Ils allient les thèmes aux procédés stylistiques et expriment, de ce fait, une reconnaissance des qualités poétiques de l’œuvre du chef de file du naturalisme. Les pastiches-Zola produits au XXe et à l’aube du XXIe siècles apparaissent donc, non seulement comme une analyse critique de cette œuvre, mais aussi comme une critique des critiques partielles ou partiales qui ont précédé le renouvellement de la lecture des textes de l’auteur de Médan. L’imbrication des procédés stylistiques et des thèmes zoliens repris et adaptés aux contextes des pasticheurs montre que le style littéraire convoque à la fois les dimensions idiosyncrasiques et sociologiques des façons d’écrire propres à un écrivain, le style n’étant pas un phénomène abstrait mais une série de choix formels et thématiques historiquement situés et dont l’imitation est grandement déterminée par des représentations
Zola-pastiches are a sign of reception of Zola’s literary works. More than a centuryafter his death, his style is still targeted by the authors of this type of rewriting. Our researchposes the problem of mimetic or differential appropriation of Zola-pastiches posterior to hisdeath. How the author of Les Rougon-Macquart is imitated in these pastiches is our mainresearch question. A pastiche is a writing that implies a textual repeat characterized by theexistence of two types of texts: the hypertext (derived text) and the hypotext (source text). Acomparative approach linked to the theories of intertextuality and hypertextuality has enabledus to discover that the imitators of Zola draw inspiration from his writings and also from thewritings of other authors. They thus produce pastiches with single, double or multiplehypotexts. The distinction between Zola-pastiches is also based on their internal (literary) orexternal (political, advertising) aim. The authors of pastiches with external aims documentthe social facts of their era just like Zola did in his novels. Some authors show a literaryengagement by attacking political leaders but indirectly. In addition to their aims, theirrepresentation of Zola’s style diversifies their writings. Each writer conforms to someimitation rules which are generally related to the principles of similarities and differences.Some pastiches are therefore move creative and/or more representative of Zola’s style thanothers. The study of the imitative ways of pastiches’ writers implies a reflection on theconcept of style whose definitions seem unclear. These writers no longer focus only onZola’s thematic which has been highly criticized during his life time and even after his death.They blend themes and stylistic devices, thus acknowledging the poetic quality of the literaryworks of the naturalism founder. The Zola-pastiches written during the 20th and at thebeginning of the 21st centuries therefore appear to be a critical analysis of these works as wellas the criticism of the partial or one-sided criticism that preceded the renewed interest in thereading of the author of Medan’s texts. The imbrication of stylistic devices and themesborrowed from Zola and adapted to new contexts shows that the literary style convokes theidiosyncratic and sociologic dimensions of an author’s specific way of writing, given that,style is not an abstract phenomenon but a series of formal and thematic choices which arehistorically located and whose imitation is highly determined by representations

Abstract:

Hypertext techniques are now beginning to be used in the ways that early researchers anticipated, from personal note taking to online help for ubiquitous computing environments and universal literature resources, yet despite this, hypertext models have remained substantially unchanged. This thesis investigates the nature of text, how it may best be modelled on a computer and how the connections between related texts may be expressed in a flexible and efficient way. First we look at the development of hypertext systems and then compare that with the complex structured nature of texts themselves. LACE, a small-scale hypertext system based on structured texts is introduced. and compared with other hypertext systems. Approaches to large-scale distributed hypertexts discussed., and LACE-92, a system used to produce hypertexts from distributed information services is presented. Finally LACE-93, a new document architecture for global hypertext environments is proposed.

Abstract:

Recent years have seen the development of interactive 3D graphics on the Web. The ability to visualize and manipulate 3D content in real time seems to be the next evolution of the Web for a wide number of application areas such as e-commerce, education and training, architecture design, virtual museums and virtual communities. The use of online 3D graphics in these application domains does not mean to substitute traditional web content of texts, images and videos, but rather acts as a complement for it. The Web is now a platform where hypertext, hypermedia, and 3D graphics are simultaneously available to users. This use of online 3D graphics, however, poses two main issues. First, since 3D interactions are cumbersome as they provide numerous degrees of freedom, 3D browsing may be inefficient. We tackle this problem by proposing a new paradigm based on crowdsourcing to ease online 3D interactions, that consists of analyzing 3D user interactions to identify Regions of Interest (ROIs), and generating recommendations to subsequent users. The recommendations both reduce 3D browsing time and simplify 3D interactions. Second, 3D graphics contain purely rich visual information of the concepts. On the other hand, traditional websites mainly contain descriptive information (text) with hyperlinks as navigation means. The problem is that viewing and interacting with the websites that use two very different mediums (hypertext and 3D graphics) may be complicated for users. To address this issue, we propose to use crowdsourcing for building semantic associations between texts and 3D visualizations. The produced links are suggested to upcoming users so that they can readily locate 3D visualization associated with a textual content. We evaluate the proposed methods with experimental user studies. The evaluations show that the recommendations reduce 3D interaction time. Moreover, the results from the user study showed that our proposed semantic association is appreciated by users, that is, a majority of users assess that recommendations were helpful for them, and browsing 3D objects using both mouse interactions and the proposed links is preferred compared to having only mouse interactions.

Abstract:

Fuelled by the popularity and uptake of the World Wide Web since the 1990s, many researchers and commercial vendors have focussed on Adaptive Hypermedia Systems as an effective mechanism for disseminating personalised information and services. Such systems store information about the user, such as their goals, interests and background, and use this to provide a personalised response to the user. This technology has been applied to a number of contexts such as education systems, e-commerce applications, information search and retrieval systems. As an increasing number of systems collect and store personal information about their users to provide a personalised service, legislation around the world increasingly requires that users have access to view and modify their personal data. The spirit of such legislation is that the user should be able to understand how personal information about them is used. There literature has reported benefits of allowing users to access and understand data collected about them, particularly in the context of supporting learning through reflection. Although researchers have experimented with open user models, typically the personalisation is inscrutable: the user has little or no visibility in to the adaptation process. When the adaptation produces unexpected results, the user may be left confused with no mechanism for understanding why the system did what it did or how to correct it. This thesis is the next step, giving users the ability to see what has been personalised and why. In the context of personalised hypermedia, this thesis describes the first research to go beyond open, or even scrutable user models; it makes the adaptivity and associated processes open to the user and controllable. The novelty of this work is that a user of an adaptive hypertext system might ask How was this page personalised to me? and is able to see just how their user model affected what they saw in the hypertext document. With an understanding of the personalisation process and the ability to control it, the user is able to steer the personalisation to suit their changing needs, and help improve the accuracy of the user model. Developing an interface to support the scrutinisation of an adaptive hypertext is difficult. Users may not scrutinise often as it is a distraction from their main task. But when users need to scrutinise, perhaps to correct a system misconception, they need to easily find and access the scrutinisation tools. Ideally, the tools should not require any training and users should be able to use them effectively without prior experience or if have not used them for a long time, since this is how users are likely to scrutinise in practice. The contributions of thesis are: (1) SASY/ATML, a domain independent, reusable framework for creation and delivery of scrutable adaptive hypertext; (2)a toolkit of graphical tools that allow the user to scrutinise, or inspect and understand what personalisation occurred and control it; (3) evaluation of the scrutinisation tools and (4) a set of guidelines for providing support for the scrutinisation of an adaptive hypertext through the exploration of several forms of scrutinisation tools.

Abstract:

Information delivery on the Web often relies on general purpose Web pages that require the reader to adapt to them. This limitation is addressed by approaches such as spatial hypermedia and adaptive hypermedia. Spatial hypermedia augments the representation power of hypermedia and adaptive hypermedia explores the automatic modification of the presentation according to user needs. This dissertation merges these two approaches, combining the augmented expressiveness of spatial hypermedia with the flexibility of adaptive hypermedia. This dissertation presents the Multi-model Adaptive Spatial Hypermedia framework (MASH). This framework provides the theoretical grounding for the augmentation of spatial hypermedia with dynamic and adaptive functionality and, based on their functionality, classifies systems as generative, interactive, dynamic or adaptive spatial hypermedia. Regarding adaptive hypermedia, MASH proposes the use of multiple independent models that guide the adaptation of the presentation in response to multiple relevant factors. The framework is composed of four parts: a general system architecture, a definition of the fundamental concepts in spatial hypermedia, an ontological classification of the adaptation strategies, and the philosophy of conflict management that addresses the issue of multiple independent models providing contradicting adaptation suggestions. From a practical perspective, this dissertation produced WARP, the first MASH-based system. WARPs novel features include spatial transclusion links as an alternative to navigational linking, behaviors supporting dynamic spatial hypermedia, and personal annotations to spatial hypermedia. WARP validates the feasibility of the multi-model adaptive spatial hypermedia and allows the exploration of other approaches such as Web-based spatial hypermedia, distributed spatial hypermedia, and interoperability issues between spatial hypermedia systems. In order to validate the approach, a user study comparing non-adaptive to adaptive spatial hypertext was conducted. The study included novice and advanced users and produced qualitative and quantitative results. Qualitative results revealed the emergence of reading behaviors intrinsic to spatial hypermedia. Users moved and modified the objects in order to compare and group objects and to keep track of what had been read. Quantitative results confirmed the benefits of adaptation and indicated a possible synergy between adaptation and expertise. In addition, the study created the largest spatial hypertext to date in terms of textual content.

Abstract:

The object of this thesis is to discuss the limits of the hypertext concept. The issue is whether the concept of hypertext necessarily depends on the conditions of the electronic media and www, or if the concept of hypertext more likely is founded on certain textual structures and strategies. In the light of contributions to hypertext theory during the 1990s, this thesis compares different views on hypertext, and concludes with an evaluation. The poem it the authors own translation of the original Danish title det, written in 1969 by the system-poet Inger Christensen, is the object of this case study. The poem is analysed with respect to its structural organisation and literary composition. In the search for a nonfixed structure, the analysis concentrates on: + sequentiality and linearity in the systems of order among the passages in the poem + four essential themes that interrelate in certain ways Both these approaches to the analysis reveal aspects that contribute to the sequential mobility of the text. This thesis concludes that the poem it fulfills the criteria of hypertext, viewed as a structural quality in texts.

Abstract:

With the wide-spread adoption of hypermedia systems and the World Wide Web (WWW) in particular, these systems have evolved from simple systems with only textual content to those that incorporate a large content base, which consists of a wide variety of document types. Also, with the increase in the number of users, there has grown a need for these systems to be accessible to a wider range of users. Consequently, the growth of the systems along with the number and variety of users require new presentation and navigation mechanisms for a wider audience. One of the new presentation methods is the audio-only presentation of hypertext content and this research proposes a novel solution to this problem for complex and dynamic systems. The hypothesis is that the proposed Audio Browser is an efficient tool for presenting hypertext in audio format, which will prove to be useful for several applications including browsers for visually-impaired and remote users. The Audio Browser provides audio-only browsing of contents in a Petri-based hypertext system called Context-Aware Trellis (caT). It uses a combination of synthesized speech and pre-recorded speech to allow its user to listen to contents of documents, follow links, and get information about the navigation process. It also has mechanisms for navigating within documents in order to allow users to view contents more quickly.

Abstract:

The hypertext paradigm offers a powerful way of modelling complex knowledge structures. Information can be arranged into networks, and connected using hypertext links. This has led to the development of more open hypertext design, which allow hypertext services to be integrated seamlessly into the user's environment. Recent research has also seen the emergence of adaptive hypertext, which uses feedback from the user to modify objects in the hypertext. The research presented in this thesis describes the HIPPO hypertext model which combines many of the ideas in open hypertext research, with existing work on adaptive hypertext systems. The idea of fuzzy anchors are introduced which allow authors to express the uncertainty and vagueness which is inherent in a hypertext anchor. Fuzzy anchors use partial truth values which allow authors to define a "degree of membership" for anchors. Anchors no longer have fixed, discrete boundaries, but have more in common with contour lines used in map design. These fuzzy anchors are used as the basis for an adaptive model, so that anchors can be modified in response to user actions. The HIPPO linking model introduces linkbase trees which combine link collections into inheritance hierarchies. These are used to construct reusable inheritance trees, which allow authors to reuse and build on existing link collections. An adaptive model is also presented to modify these linkbase hierarchies. Finally, the HIPPO system is re-implemented using a widely distributed architecture. This distributed model implements a hypertext system as a collection of lightweight, distributed services. The benefits of this distributed hypertext model are discussed, and an adaptive model is then suggested.

Abstract:

G-Net system is being developed by the members of the G-Net research group under the supervision of Dr. K. Jay Bagga. The principle objective of the G-Net system is to provide an integrated tool for dealing with various aspects of graph theory. G-Net system is divided into two parts. GETS (Graph theory Experiments Tool Set) will provide a set of tools to experiment with graph theory, and HYGRES (HYpertext Graph theory Reference Service), the second subcomponent of the G-Net system to aid graph theory study and research. In this research a hypertext application is built to present the graph theory concepts, graph models and the algorithms. In other words, HYGRES (Guide Version) provides the hypertext facilities for organizing a graph theory database in a very natural and interactive way. An hypertext application development tool, called Guide, is used to implement this version of HYGRES. This project integrates the existing version of GETS so that it can also provide important services to HYGRES. The motivation behind this project is to study the initial criterion for developing a hypertext system, which can be used for future development of a stand alone version of the G-Net system.

Abstract:

Artificial Intelligence Lab, Department of MIS, University of Arizona
With the growth of hypertext and multimedia applications that support and encourage browsing it is time to take a penetrating look at browsing behavior. Several dimensions of browsing are examined, to find out: first, what is browsing and what cognitive processes are associated with it; second, is there a browsing strategy, and if so, are there any differences between how subject-area experts and novices browse; and finally, how can this knowledge be applied to improve the design of hypertext systems. Two groups of students, subject-area experts and novices, were studied while browsing a Macintosh H y p e r c a r d application on the subject of The Vietnam War. A protocol analysis technique was used to gather and analyze data. Components of the GOMS model were used to describe the goals, operators, methods, and selection rules observed. Three browsing strategies were identified: 1) search-oriented browse, scanning and reviewing information relevant to a fixed task, 2) reviewbrowse, scanning and reviewing interesting information in the presence of transient browse goals that represent changing tasks, and 3) scan-browse, scanning for interesting information (without review). Most subjects primarily used review-browse interspersed with search-oriented browse. Within this strategy, comparisons between subject-area experts and novices revealed differences in tactics: experts browsed in more depth, seldom used referential links, selected different kinds of topics, and viewed information differently than did novices. Based on these findings, suggestions are made to hypertext developers.

Abstract:

Many areas of computer science use graph theory and thus benefit from research in graph theory. Some of the important activities involved in graph theory work are the study of concepts, algorithm development, and theorem proving. These can be facilitated by providing computerized tools for graph drawing, algorithm animation and accessing graph theory information bases. Project G-Net is aimed at developing a set of such tools.Project G-Net has chosen to provide the tools in hypertext form based on the analysis of users' requirements. The project is presently developing a hypertext application and a hypertext system for providing the above set of tools. In the process of this development various issues pertaining to hypertext authoring, hypertext usability and application of graph theory to hypertext are being explored.The focus of this thesis is in proving that hypertext approach is most appropriate for realizing the goals of the G-Net project. The author was involved in the research that went into analysis of requirements, design of hypertext application and system, and the investigation of the complementary relationship between graph theory and hypertext.

Abstract:

A travers une approche multidisciplinaire qui s’appuie sur l’analyse littéraire, sur la philosophie et l’anthropologie, l'auteur de ce travail part de l’œuvre de Italo Calvino pour ouvrir une réflexion sur des thèmes extrêmement actuels tels que la narration, la construction identitaire, l'interprétation... Le mythe postmoderne sur la dissolution de |'identité et le pouvoir émancipateur des technologies digitales se révèle auj0urd'hui comme un faux mythe et des questions qui semblaient enterrées réapparaissent dans toute leur urgence. En refusant |'interprétation qui fait d’ltaIo Calvino l’un des apôtres du postmodernisme, la lecture de ses écrits devient ainsi l’occasion pour articuler une réflexion critique sur la réalité contemporaine.La première partie du travail est une réflexion théorique qui propose une conception générale sur la fonction anthropologique du récit et sur le rôle social des savoirs littéraires. La deuxième partie relie ce discours à l’œuvre de Calvino et à sa vision de la littérature comme un instrument pour remettre en discussion les idées passivement reçues et pour avoir une attitude critique face au monde
Through a multidisciplinary approach that draws on literary analysis, on philosophy and anthropology, the author of this thesis reed the texts by Italo Calvino with the aim to open a debate on highly topical themes such as storytelling, identity construction, interpretation. The postmodern myth about the dissolution of identity and emancipatory power of digital technologies is revealed today as a false myth and issues that seemed buried reappear in all their urgency. By refusing the interpretation that makes Italo Calvino one of the apostles of postmodernism, the reading of his writings is the opportunity to articulate a critical reflection on contemporary reality. The first part of the work is a theoretical reflection that proposes a general design on the anthropological function of the narrative and the social role of literary knowledge. The second part relates this reflection to the work of Calvino and his vision of literature as a tool to put into question the ideas passively received and to build a critical attitude towards the world

Abstract:

I detta arbete har jag försökt att besvara frågan om hur hypertext kan nyttjas för att förbättra hanteringen av anteckningar i UCASE-verktyg. Detta har inte minst varit motiverat av de goda erfarenheter andra forskare har haft av CASE-verktyg med hypertextfunktionalitet.

För att kunna besvara frågan har jag först utarbetat ett ramverk med krav på hanteringen av anteckningar i CASE-verktyg utifrån bl. a. anteckningarnas och dokumentationens roll i systemutvecklingsprocessen.

Detta ramverk har sedan använts för att utvärdera två UCASE-verktygs hantering av anteckningar. Utifrån denna utvärdering har sedan möjliga förbättringar föreslagits.

Som ett resultat av detta har jag funnit att det sannolikt finns vissa brister i UCASE-verktygs hantering av anteckningar. Inte minst förefaller möjligheten att koppla anteckningar till andra anteckningar och objekt i modeller att vara begränsad. Jag har därför föreslagit att sådan funktionalitet ska införas med hjälp av hypertext.

Abstract:

Hypertext has the potential to revolutionise the way we organise and read texts. Indeed, hypertext’s non-linearity and enhanced learner control are regarded by many as being an enormous advantage over the traditional printed medium. However, there is evidence to suggest that users are unable to explore hypertext without experiencing navigational problems (Kim and Hirtle 1995).The research presented in this thesis examined some of the problems associated with navigation and learning in hypertext. As regards navigation, it was found that disorientation is a problem for hypertext users and that text structure affects navigation performance. Non-linear texts are a greater problem for users than hierarchical and mixed texts (hierarchical with a small number of cross referential links). It appears therefore, that although non-linear networks capture the real essence of hypertext, users are unable to manage the freedom they are given Disorientation also seems to be particularly marked for users who are unfamiliar with the subject matter of the text. However, the results show that the provision of localised spatial maps can minimise disorientation. As regards learning, the results showed that although non-linear texts create navigational problems and disrupt learning at acquisition, they can lead to good long-term retention. Indeed, the results suggest a dissociation between navigation and learning. That is, efficient navigation is not always a prerequisite of meaningful learning. Unfortunately, the results showed that subjects prefer linear text and believe that hypertext requires greater mental effort to understand largely because of the navigational problems it creates. One solution to this problem may be to provide some form of guidance such as a map. However, the structural information depicted in spatial maps does not appear to support learning. By contrast, a conceptual map can reduce (but not eradicate) disorientation and enhance learning at both acquisition and retention.

Abstract:

This research explores how computers may be used by individual researchers engaged in cognitive activity and creating original outputs, specifically, how one of the emerging information technologies, hypertext, is able to provide suggestions for the understanding to support and empower human cognitive activity.The study investigates the possibility of a new model within which to approach that part of research that seeks to make connections to what has been done previously, and to stimulate new thoughts.Imagine swimming in a vast sea of potentially useful information. How can one possibly begin to make sense of it? Engage in a phenomenological experience in which the data is permitted to speak to you. Immerse yourself, navigate around with the ability to backtrack, search, explore trails of associative thought, all with a prepared mind. The mind is prepared, or sensitised, due to the previous research and learning ? the culture to which one belongs. The process will gradually cause an uncluttering of the sea of information resulting eventually in what in this thesis is termed Generative Conceptualisation. The tools and techniques used to do this (for it is impossible to work unaided with large amounts of data) will have provided the empowerment to generate and create. The tyranny of linear order has been replaced by the dynamically varying structure of selected, sometimes hierarchical and othertimes herterarchic or network views of the data, forming or exposing (primarily through juxtaposition) insights, new ideas, and new knowledge. These are some characteristics of working in a hypertext paradigm.Generative Conceptualisation is introduced to describe the intermingling of human mind and computer hypertext, which, it is argued, results in a greater degree of original output by researchers. A hypertext paradigm, the definition of which emerges in the thesis, is suggested as being an environment for Generative Conceptualisation. A theory (substantive) of knowledge creation is offered in the concluding chapter, in the light of which existing formal theories of knowledge creation may be reviewed or elaborated.

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the effect of increased intake of selenium from the diet of rats with spontaneous hypertension (SHR) on other essential elements. The effect of different diets on the element levels in kidney, liver, testes, and blood of rats was observed under model conditions. Tested rats were divided into five groups, where the first group A was the reference group and feed mixture contained no additive. In groups B and C was soybean meal replaced by defatted rapeseed and into feed mixture of group C was additionally added vitamin E. Diet groups D and E contained added selenium and zinc, and group E contained additionally vitamin E in comparison to reference group A. Se content in kidney, liver, testicles, and blood of animals was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP MS). The other essential elements (Cu, Fe, Mn, P, S, and Zn) were determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). The content of Ca, K and Mg was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry with flame atomizer (F-AAS). The hypothesis has been that the increased intake of selenium should improve the use of other essential elements by the rat organism. It was expected that there will be influenced elements mainly involved in the defense of the organism against oxidative stress. This was not confirmed by this experiment. Changes in the concentrations of these elements occurred only at very high dose of selenium that is already toxic to the organism. This toxic effect could be also responsible for fifty percent mortality of rats in group E, where perhaps even increased concentration of vitamin E could not sufficiently reduce the toxicity of high doses of selenium.
