Man darf Terumah nicht für das Unreine beiseite legen . Und wenn sie die Terumah beiseite legen, ist ihre Terumah [gültige] Terumah . Wahrlich, sie sagten, die Feigenrunde, von der einige unrein gemacht wurden, man könne Terumah von dem Reinen, das darin ist, für das Unreine, das darin ist , beiseite legen . Und so auch mit einem Bündel Grün und so auch mit einem Haufen. Wenn es zwei Runden, zwei Bündel oder zwei Stapel gäbe - einen unreinen und einen reinen -, darf man Terumah nicht von einem zum anderen beiseite legen . Rabbi Eliezer sagt: Man kann Terumah vom Reinen für das Unreine beiseite legen .
Tosefta Terumot
[If there are] five collections [of produce] on the threshing floor, terumah [may be] taken from one on behalf of all, said Rabbi Yehudah. When is this? At the time that the major part (עיקר) of the [produce of the] threshing floor still remains. If the major part of the threshing floor does not remain, terumah is taken from each collection separately. One who brings produce inside his house, even though they are scattered (מְפוּזָּרִין, see Megillah 13b:18), he [may] take terumah from one on behalf of everything. [If there were] two piles that were heaped together (see Ter. 4:12), he takes terumah from each and every one. If had sacks of produce or rounds of fig cake or דוגיות of dried figs, we [may] take terumah from everything in one basket, and take tithes from one on behalf of the other.

We may take terumah from a stack [of grain] on behalf of a pile, but not from a pile on behalf of a stack.

Tosefta Terumot
[In summary,] we [may] separate terumah and tithes from the impure on behalf of the impure, and from the the pure on behalf of the pure, and from the impure on behalf of the pure, but not from the pure on behalf of the impure (contrary to Rabbi Eliezer above (and see Bava Kamma 115b:14)). Rabbi Nehemiah says, we do not separate [terumah] from the impure on behalf of the impure, but only as to demai. They said to him, behold, it says (Num. 18:28), "... and [they] are to give from them the contribution of God to Aharon the priest" (i.e., the Torah does not distinguish between pure and impure in relation to terumah).

Tosefta Terumot
One who separates terumah and tithes on Shabbat, whether unwittingly or intentionally, his tithes are [valid] tithes, and one who immerses [impure] utensils on Shabbat, whether unwittingly or intentionally, the immersion counts (contra Ter. 2:3 [invalidating intentional tithing and immersion on Shabbat]).
