Abstract:A pilot study was conducted to determine if exposome profiles of honey bees (Apis mellifera) are associated with Nosema ceranae infection and whether xenobiotic exposures effect changes in known biological pathways of bees. Thirty stationary hives were selected from seven apiaries representing urban and suburban geographies. Foraging bees were harvested during the summer of 2015 and analyzed for Nosema ceranae infection via semi-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (sq-PCR) and discovery-based exposome analy… Show more
