The losses of bee colonies are of alarming proportion not only for bee-keepers and
honey consumers but for agricultural production and the market itself as well. Since
2006, honey bees and other pollinators throughout the world have experienced ongoing
and rapid population declines. The continuation of this crisis threatens the stability of
ecosystems, the economy and our food supply, as one in three bites of food are
dependent on pollinator services. The extraction and purification of bees samples were
done by the QuEChERS method. The obtained extracts were analyzed by GC-MS,
screening analysis of bees to the content of 927 pesticides. Gubici pčelinjih društava su alarmantni ne samo za pčelara i potrošače meda,
nego za poljoprivrednu proizvodnju uopšte. Od 2006. godine, pčele i drugi oprašivači
širom sveta doživnjavaju stalan i veoma brz pad populacije. Nastavak ove krize, ugrožava
stabilnost ekosistema, privrede i proizvodnju hrane, usled njihove zavisnosti od
polinatora. U radu su analizirani uzorci uginulih pčela ekstrahovani i prečišćeni
QuEChERS metodom, dok su dobijeni ekstrakti analizirani GC-MS skrining metodom na
sadržaj 927 pesticida.
