A method for the determination of 200 pesticides and pesticide metabolites in honeybee
samples has been developed and validated. Almost 98% of compounds included in this …

An optimized analytical method employing gas chromatography–tandem quadrupole mass
spectrometry (GC–MS/MS) has been developed for the simultaneous screening of roughly …

Increasing emissions of chemical compounds to the environment, especially of pesticides, is
one of factors that may explain present honeybee colony losses. In this work, an analytical …

One of the factors that may explain nowadays honeybees' colonies losses is the increasing
presence of chemicals in the environment. The aim of this study is to obtain a global view of …

Several methods for analyzing pesticides in honey have been developed. However, they do
not always reach the sufficiently low limits of quantification (LOQ) needed to quantify …

The aim of this study was to investigate reported cases of honeybee death incidents with
regard to the potential interrelation to the exposure to pesticides. Thus honeybee, bee pollen …

Beebread is among the matrices suspected of contaminating honeybee. To better
understand this contamination, the study aimed to develop an efficient, sensitive and reliable …

Determining the levels of agrochemicals, such as pesticides, that honey bees are exposed
to is critical for understanding what stress factors may be contributing to colony declines …

One of the hypotheses that may help explain the loss of honey bee colonies worldwide is the
increasing potential for exposure of honey bees to complex mixtures of pesticides. To better …

In 2002 a field survey was initiated in French apiaries in order to monitor the health of honey
bee colonies (Apis mellifera L.). Studied apiaries were evenly distributed across five sites …
