Key points

  • Selenium is an essential nutrient with diverse physiological functions, and soluble organic selenium (SOS) sources have a higher bioavailability than inorganic selenium sources
  • Based on the response surface methodology and central composite design, this study presents the optimal medium components for SOS accumulation in batch cultures of Flammulina velutipes, i.e. 30 g/L glucose, 11.2 mg/L sodium selenite, and 1.85 g/L NH4NO3
  • Furthermore, logistic function model feeding was found to be the optimal feeding strategy for SOS accumulation during Flammulina velutipes mycelia fermentation, where the maximum SOS accumulation reached (4.63 +/- 0.24) mg/L, which is consistent with the predicted value
