Novel nitric oxide (NO) generating polymeric materials possessing immobilized organoselenium species are described. These materials mimic the capability of small organoselenium molecules as well as a known selenium-containing enzyme, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), by catalytically decomposing S-nitrosothiols (RSNO) into NO and
