Addressing chemical risks in beekeeping products: development of a combined ultrasound-assisted extraction and QuEChERS-based method for the simultaneous determination of mycotoxins and pesticides in bee pollen and honey.

This work presents an ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) combined with a QuEChERS approach, followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis, for the determination of 20 mycotoxins and 10 pesticides in bee pollen and honey samples. The method was validated … Continue reading

Sweeping-micellar electrokinetic chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry as an alternative methodology to determine neonicotinoid and boscalid residues in pollen and honeybee samples.

In this work, it is proposed for the first time an electrophoretic approach based on micellar electrokinetic chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MEKC-MS/MS) for the simultaneous determination of nine neonicotinoids (NNIs) together with the fungicide boscalid in pollen and … Continue reading
