Ultra-Sensitive & Rapid Assay of Neonicotinoids, Fipronil and Other Metabolites in Honey

This application note presents a method for the ultra-sensitive and rapid assay of neonicotinoids, fipronil and other metabolites in honey by UHPLC-MS/MS. The use of neonicotinoids as insectisides has become controversial due to the decline in the number of honeybee colonies. In order to better understand the effect of these compounds on bees and their contamination in pollen and honey,
