Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of crop nutrient solutions, and in particular to an organic selenium nutrient solution for crops and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Selenium is an essential trace element for the human body, playing important physiological functions such as antioxidation and immune regulation. However, the production of naturally selenium-rich agricultural products is limited, making it difficult to meet the daily intake needs of the population. Therefore, increasing selenium accumulation levels in crops through exogenous selenium supply has become a key technological approach in current agricultural production.
[0003] In existing technologies, selenium supply methods mainly include two categories: inorganic selenium fertilizers and organic selenium fertilizers. Inorganic selenium fertilizers, such as sodium selenite and sodium selenate, are widely used, but their bioavailability is low, and they are prone to redox transformations in soil or plants, leading to selenium inactivation or increased toxicity, highlighting safety and stability issues. In contrast, organic selenium, due to its molecular structure being closer to that of biological systems, exhibits higher utilization efficiency and physiological compatibility during plant absorption and metabolism, making it a key research focus. Among these, selenium-containing amino acid compounds show great application potential because they can be effectively absorbed through the active transport pathways of plants.
[0004] To improve the efficiency of selenium absorption by crops, some studies have attempted to combine selenium supply systems with plant nutrient solutions, enhancing selenium absorption and translocation while providing basic nutrients. However, this technology still faces many challenges in practical applications. For example, organic selenium is easily degraded in aqueous solutions due to environmental conditions, resulting in a loss of activity. Furthermore, when coexisting with other nutrient components, adverse reactions such as complexation failure and precipitation may occur, affecting the overall system stability and the bioavailability of selenium. In addition, the ability of plants to absorb exogenous selenium is jointly regulated by multiple factors, including their translocation mechanisms, physiological state, and nutrient environment; simply adding selenium-supplying components is unlikely to significantly improve the migration and accumulation of selenium within crops.
[0005] In summary, current organic selenium supply technologies for crops still have significant shortcomings in terms of selenium stability, absorbability, and synergy with crop nutrition. There is an urgent need to develop new selenium supply systems that are more efficient, stable, and adaptable to agricultural application requirements in order to promote the sustainable development of selenium-enriched agriculture. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide an organic selenium nutrient solution for crops and its preparation method.
[0007] An organic selenium nutrient solution for crops, comprising the following components by weight percentage: Selenomethionine 0.1-0.5%; The compound amino acids comprise 2.0-5.0%; the compound amino acids consist of a mixture of amino acids, primarily composed of soybean protein hydrolysate. Potassium humate 1.0–3.0%; Plant extracts 0.5-1.0%; The EDTA-chelated calcium, magnesium, and zinc content is 0.05%–0.5%; the mass ratio of calcium, magnesium, and zinc is 1:1:1. Potassium sorbate 0.05–0.2 wt%; The remaining amount of purified water.
[0008] Preferably, the selenomethionine is L-selenomethionine, and the L-selenomethionine undergoes a three-layer coating treatment. The three layers, from the inside out, are an inner layer formed by chitosan-citric acid crosslinking, a middle layer formed by hydroxypropyl methylcellulose coating, and an outer layer formed by sodium alginate-gelatin coating.
[0009] Preferably, the inner layer is formed by cross-linking chitosan with a molecular weight of 100-150 kDa and a degree of deacetylation of 75-85% with citric acid in a molar ratio of 1:2 to 1:3.
[0010] Preferably, the viscosity of the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose in the intermediate layer is 60–100 mPa·s.
[0011] Preferably, the outer layer is further formed by a composite ionic crosslinking of CaCl2 and ZnCl2, and Zn... 2+ Concentration of Ca 2 + 5% to 15%.
[0012] This invention employs a three-layer encapsulation strategy for L-selenomethionine, designed from the inside out. The inner layer network is constructed using chitosan-citric acid crosslinking. By controlling the molecular weight (100–150 kDa), degree of deacetylation (75–85%), and crosslinking ratio (molar ratio 1:2–1:3) of chitosan, a highly dense and protective colloidal core can be formed, effectively isolating the body from external hydrolysis and oxidation. The middle layer is encapsulated with hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. A controllable hydration shell is established by selecting a cellulose derivative with a viscosity of 60–100 mPa·s, exhibiting stable controlled-release behavior and adapting to the nutrient absorption rhythms of different crops. The outer layer introduces Ca... 2+ With Zn 2+ Crosslinking of Zn and Zn can construct a gel outer membrane with an interwoven network structure. 2+ The concentration was set at Ca 2+ Within the range of 5–15%, it helps to regulate the density and mechanical strength of the membrane, significantly improving the structural integrity and environmental adaptability of the controlled-release particles.
[0013] Preferably, the mass ratio of the compound amino acids, potassium humate, and plant extracts is 5:2:1.
[0014] Preferably, the plant extract is a compound composed of loquat leaf extract, honeysuckle extract and licorice extract in a mass ratio of 1:1:1.
[0015] The loquat leaf extract, honeysuckle extract, and licorice extract can be prepared using conventional water extraction or ethanol extraction methods. For example: (1) Take dried loquat leaves, honeysuckle and licorice raw materials, and crush them through a 40-mesh sieve; (2) Add deionized water at a material-to-liquid ratio of 1:10 to 1:20 and extract at 70 to 80°C for 1 to 2 hours; (3) After filtering the residue and concentrating under reduced pressure to a solid content of 10-30 wt%, the extract powder is obtained by spray drying or freeze drying. (4) Mix the three extracts obtained in a mass ratio of 1:1:1 to obtain the plant extract compound.
[0016] Extraction can also be performed using 50-70% ethanol solvent; specific conditions can be adjusted according to conventional processes. Those skilled in the art can implement this method accordingly.
[0017] Preferably, the composite amino acid contains 50–90 wt% free amino acids, wherein the total content of glutamic acid and aspartic acid is not less than 30 wt%.
[0018] Preferably, the potassium humate is potassium fulvate with a molecular weight of 3000–5000 Da.
[0019] Complex amino acids primarily serve as preferential chelators and carriers of micronutrients, while potassium humate improves rhizosphere soil structure and enhances water and solute conductivity. Flavonoids and phenolic compounds from different sources in plant extracts can induce the expression of plant selenium transport proteins and delay the oxidation and transformation of Se. In particular, by directionally combining extracts from loquat leaves (signal regulation), honeysuckle (antioxidant), and licorice (selenium stabilization) into a "plant extract library" with inducible properties, a multi-site, multi-pathway physiological activation system is constructed, which helps improve the migration rate and form transformation efficiency of selenium in crops. The overall design shows a synergistic trend in multiple nutrient release, environmental stability, and activation of plant absorption mechanisms.
[0020] A method for preparing an organic selenium nutrient solution for crops includes the following steps: S1. Selenomethionine and compound amino acids were mixed and dissolved in purified water in a certain proportion, and the pH was adjusted to 6.0±0.2; S2. Add potassium humate to the above solution, adjust the pH to 5.5±0.2, and stir until homogeneous; S3. Add plant extract to the above solution, adjust the pH to 5.5±0.2, and stir well; S4. Add EDTA-chelated calcium, magnesium, and zinc to the above solution and continue stirring until homogeneous; S5. After filtration, add potassium sorbate and stir well.
[0021] This invention introduces a scientifically sound strategy for the order of component addition and pH gradient control during nutrient solution preparation. This activates the activation windows of different components at each stage, improving system stability and nutrient efficiency. Firstly, mixing the composite amino acids and mineral elements at pH 6.0±0.2 allows the carboxyl and amino groups of the amino acids to be partially dissociated, thus forming stable complexes with metal ions. This ensures efficient chelation of metal ions and effectively avoids hydroxide precipitation that easily occurs in alkaline environments, particularly for Zn. 2+ The preservation of these components is particularly crucial, providing a good foundation for subsequent chelation-migration processes.
[0022] Subsequently, potassium humate was introduced at a pH of 5.5 ± 0.2. At this pH, the phenolic hydroxyl and carboxyl groups reached optimal dissociation, which facilitated the further formation of multi-point complexes or spatial cross-linked structures with existing amino acid-metal complexes. This step enhanced the stability of the mineral elements while preventing the decomposition of selenomethionine under alkaline conditions or irreversible reactions with humic acid. The enhanced complexation at this stage not only helped control liquid-phase stability but also improved the subsequent absorption efficiency of chelated elements by plants.
[0023] Next, plant extracts were added, and the pH of the system was maintained at 5.5±0.2 to ensure that the main active components (such as flavonoids and phenolic acids) could function under stable conditions and avoid oxidative polymerization and inactivation. This component was added at this stage as an "inducing component," which not only helps stabilize the complexation system but also enhances the migration and effective absorption of organic selenium from the root by stimulating the expression of selenium transport-related proteins in the plant.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1. Using L-selenomethionine as the organic selenium source, its bioavailability exceeds 90%, significantly superior to commonly used inorganic selenium (such as sodium selenite) preparations. Simultaneously, a three-layer coating technology (chitosan-citric acid crosslinking, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose coating, and sodium alginate-gelatin outer layer) effectively controls the release rate, delays its degradation in plants, and enhances selenium migration and utilization.
[0025] 2. The compound amino acids in the nutrient solution can form multi-point chelates with calcium, magnesium and zinc, and potassium humate further constructs a stable complex network, effectively preventing the precipitation of metal ions; especially under pH gradient regulation (6.0→5.5), it significantly improves the stability of metal ions and the absorption efficiency of crops.
[0026] 3. By introducing flavonoids and phenolic acids from plant extracts such as loquat leaves, honeysuckle, and licorice, the expression pathway of plant selenium transport proteins is activated, thereby enhancing the plant's ability to absorb, transport, and accumulate selenium from the root.
[0027] 4. Introducing Ca into the outer layer 2+ / Zn 2+ The complex cross-linking mechanism regulates the density and strength of the particle membrane, maintaining structural integrity and controlled-release stability under complex environments, making it suitable for various crops such as rice, wheat, vegetables, and fruits.

[0097] (1) The three-layer coated L-selenomethionine (0.3 wt%) was dispersed in purified water, and the temperature was maintained at 40°C.

Comparative Example 6
[0099] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that L-selenomethionine was pre-treated with a three-layer coating using the following raw materials and methods: Step A: Chitosan-citric acid cross-linking forms the inner layer. (1) Prepare a 1% (w / v) chitosan (molecular weight 120 kDa, degree of deacetylation 80%) solution (dissolved in 0.5% acetic acid aqueous solution) and stir magnetically at 40°C until completely dissolved; (2) Add L-selenomethionine powder and ultrasonically disperse for 10 minutes; (3) Add 0.5% (w / v) citric acid solution dropwise to react chitosan with citric acid at a molar ratio of 1:2.5, and let it stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to crosslink; (4) Collect the pre-coated particles by centrifugation (5000 rpm, 10 min) and discard the supernatant.
[0100] Step B: Intermediate layer—hydroxypropyl methylcellulose coating (1) Redisperse the above particles in 50 mL of water; (2) Add hydroxypropyl methylcellulose solution (the viscosity of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is 100 mPa·s, the solution concentration is controlled at 1 wt%, and it is stirred and dissolved at 40°C in advance).

[0102] Performance testing 1. Determination of the proportion of organic selenium Methods: The nutrient solutions of each example and comparative example were used as samples, and the content ratio of organic selenium forms was detected by high performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS).
[0103] 2. Granule controlled-release performance test Method: The nutrient solution of the sample was placed in a pH 6.5 buffer solution and kept at a constant temperature of 37℃. Samples were taken at regular intervals (e.g., 0h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 48h) and the content of exogenously released selenomethionine was determined by HPLC.
[0104] Calculate T50 (time required to release 50%) and the 24-hour release rate.
[0105] 3. Plant selenium absorption rate test Crop model: Rice seedlings were selected as the model crop.
[0106] Treatment method: Seven days after spraying with different nutrient solution formulas, samples were taken to determine the selenium content (mg / kg) in the aboveground parts of the crop.
[0107] Detection method: After microwave digestion of HNO3-H2O2, selenium was measured by ICP-MS.
[0108] Absorption efficiency: The selenium transfer rate (crop selenium content / selenium application rate × 100%) is calculated based on the amount of selenium applied.
[0109] 4. Stability Testing Objective: To investigate the physicochemical stability of liquid nutrient solution under storage conditions.
[0110] Conditions: After being placed at room temperature in the dark for 30 days, observe the precipitation, pH changes, and selenium content loss.
[0111] The test results are shown in Table 1-4 below.
[0112] Table 1. Test results of organic selenium content sample Organic selenium percentage / % Example 1 98.6 Example 2 98.2 Example 3 98.7 Example 4 98.4 Example 5 96.9 Comparative Example 1 2.1 Comparative Example 2 97.3 Comparative Example 3 98.1 Comparative Example 4 97.8 Comparative Example 5 98 Comparative Example 6 98 Due to differences in the degree of free amino acids, the ratio of glutamic acid to aspartic acid, the complexing and protective effects of potassium humate and plant extracts in the formulation, the results of organic selenium detection in each example are somewhat different. However, the samples using selenomethionine all showed results of >96% organic selenium, while Comparative Example 1, which used inorganic selenium, showed a detection rate of only 2.1% for selenomethionine.

Differences in amino acid formulations (comparing Example 5 and Example 1, and Comparative Example 2 and Example 1) had little impact on the viscoelastic properties of the diffusion interface, and the overall controlled-release performance was similar.

Example 2 showed a slight decrease due to a lower proportion of active ingredients, but it was still better than the uncoated and control examples. Example 4, without coating, resulted in burst release, environmental loss, and decreased absorption efficiency. Comparative Example 1 showed the lowest inorganic selenium absorption (37.6%). Comparative Example 2 had insufficient free amino acid quality and a low Glu / Asp ratio, limiting transport and complexation performance, and the transfer rate dropped to about 49%. Comparative Example 3 lacked potassium humate, and Comparative Example 5 lacked plant extracts, resulting in slightly lower rates than Example 1 due to reduced complexation sites or weakened antioxidant / membrane stability, respectively. Comparative Example 6 only had Ca 2+ The crosslinking absorption rate was between that of Example 5 and Example 2, consistent with its moderate burst release. Comparative Example 4 had a moderate absorption rate due to insufficient colloidal stability caused by unoptimized pH.

The inorganic selenium sample in Comparative Example 1 suffered the highest loss due to its susceptibility to valence state transformation, yellowing, and coordination position switching. Comparative Examples 2, 3, 4, and 5 showed slightly worse stability than Example 1 due to factors such as insufficient ligand quality, lack of fulvic acid, unoptimized pH, or lack of plant antioxidant molecules.
