Selenic
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to selenium; derived from, or containing, selenium; specifically, designating those compounds in which the element has a higher valence as contrasted with selenious compounds.
Example Sentences:
(1) This inhibition was partially reversed on addition of the translocated substrates sulphate or selenate to the external medium: selenite which is not translocated does not protect against DIDS inhibition.
