Selenium and tellurium were separated using thiol cotton fiber (TCF; Yu et al., 1983) which was prepared similar to thiol cellulose powder as described by Elwaer and Hintelmann (2008). Briefly, 4 g of commercial cotton was weighed into 60 ml clean Savillex beakers and dried in a drying cabinet at 60 °C for 48 h.
