Metabolite Identification
Common NameTellurium
DescriptionTellurium, also known as tellur or aurum paradoxum, belongs to the class of inorganic compounds known as homogeneous metalloid compounds. These are inorganic compounds containing only metal atoms,with the largest atom being a metalloid atom. Tellurium exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and possibly neutral molecule.
