“…Honey bee hive matrices are a challenge to cleanup and quantify due to matrix issues created by the large number of fatty compounds, pigments, carbohydrates, and other complex components [39]. Two cleanup methods were compared and contrasted in the current study to quantify 11 target pesticides in honey bees, pollen and wax: an older established GPC method and a newly developed zirconia-based sorbent (Z-Sep) method.…”

“…Several review articles on different aspects of analytical methods for pesticides and herbicides were published in 2010. For example, the analysis of bee and bee products for pesticides was reviewed by Barganska and Namiesnik (2010). The review discussed the latest developments of methods to determine the levels of many different pesticides.…”

A review of literature published in 2010 on analytical methods for pesticides and herbicides is presented here in eight sections, including extraction methods, chromatographic or mass spectrometric techniques, electrochemical techniques, spectrophotometric techniques, chemiluminescence and fluorescence methods, sensors, biochemical assays and immunoassays, and miscellaneous techniques. Because many of the research studies in the cited publications utilized more than one analytical method, the different sections should not be thought of as being mutually exclusive.

“…Honey could be contaminated by pesticides due to improper beekeeping practices or agricultural activities. For instance, pesticide residues on the flowers of plants may be carried by honey bees to their hive, leading to contamination of the product, ie, honey . A recent study has shown that 75% of the collected 198 honey samples contained at least one insecticide and multiple contaminations were found in 45% of the same batch of samples .…”

Detection of pesticide residues in food samples is important for safeguarding food quality and safety. Conventional approaches for detection of pesticides in food samples typically involve labour‐intensive and time‐consuming sample pretreatment and chromatographic separation. In this study, solid phase micro‐extraction fibres were used to rapidly extract and enrich pesticides in honey, a popular agricultural product with complex matrix, and then directly coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry for qualitative and quantitative analysis. Three pesticides, ie, atrazine, benalaxyl, and pirimicarb, were investigated using the technique and their analytical performances were evaluated. The limits of detection and limits of quantitation of all the three pesticides could fulfil the cut‐off values of the international standard. Linear calibration curves were constructed with good R2 coefficients, and the accuracy and precision were in acceptable ranges for all the pesticides. The analysis time is much reduced, with only minimum sample preparation and no chromatographic separation involved. The technique is simple and easy to set up, and can be extended for analysis of other analytes and sample systems.
