“…Selenium has six natural isotopes with relative atomic masses of 74, 76, 77, 78, 80, and 82 [24,51,61,62]. These isotopes can be subject to various interferences during mass spectrometry analysis, which can be categorized into diatomic ion interferences, isobar interferences, and doubly charged ion interferences (Table 5).…”

“…Additionally, selenium is environmentally sensitive, and excessive selenium may contaminate water bodies and inhibit plant growth [17][18][19]. During coal combustion, Se can be released into the atmosphere, posing risks to the environment and human beings [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. Therefore, accurate determination of selenium in coal and coal-bearing strata holds great significance for the coal mining industry, environmental protection, and human health.…”

“…High-resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HR-ICP-MS), an improved method of ICP-MS, has gained widespread usage in trace element determination in coal-bearing strata [55][56][57][58]. However, limited discussions exist regarding interferences in the testing process of Se and its application in coal-bearing strata [24,51,59,60]. In this study, we conduct a systematic analysis of the suffered interferences of six natural isotopes of Se during mass spectrometry, propose a method for determining 77 Se at medium resolution, and evaluate the reliability of this method using standard reference samples.…”

Selenium, a trace element of significant importance for human health and the environment, can be introduced into the environment through coal combustion. Accurate determination of selenium in coal and coal-bearing strata is essential for implementing effective management strategies and control measures to minimize potential risks to human health and the environment. This study introduces an improved approach for the determination of 77Se in the medium resolution mode using HR-ICP-MS, effectively separating interference from doubly charged ions and enabling precise determination of selenium in coal-bearing strata. The relative errors of the standard reference samples obtained by HR-ICP-MS are between 0.65% and 6.33%, comparing to that of ICP-CCT-MS (1.58%–17.27%), prove the reliability of this method. Additionally, the X (bar)—S control charts obtained from HR-ICP-MS compared to ICP-CCT-MS demonstrate the superior stability of HR-ICP-MS in continuous determination. Consequently, though ICP-CCT-MS has better instrumental stability reflected through the internal standard recovery (ICP-CCT-MS:104.81%; HR-ICP-MS:80.54%), HR-ICP-MS is recommended as the preferred method for selenium determination in coal-bearing strata because of its high accuracy and good stability.
