The review contains the results of the analysis of the domestic and foreign scientific literature for last 15 years concerning organic and inorganic compounds of selenium which are applied in veterinary science and agriculture as fodder additives. Organic compounds of selenium (diacetophenonylselenide, DAPS-25 and selenopirane) have an effect on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism of animals and increase live weight of animals in a stronger form, than inorganic sodium selenite. The article discuss the hypothetical interrelation between a metabolism of selenium and carbohydrates, the assumption about possible hormonal similar action of selenoorganic compounds DAPS-25 and selenopirane as these preparations have lines of similarity to spatial structure of hormonal similar substances of not steroid nature, capable to co-operate with receptors of steroid hormones and through them to render of hormonal similar action on animal cells.
