Development of a liquid-liquid, solid-phase extraction (SPE), LC-MS/MS analytical method for qualitative and quantitative drug residue analysis in white-tailed deer
… for treatment of infectious diseases may lead to residues in tissues. The quality and safety of food from animal origin is a growing concern for public health agencies. It is important in the deer industry as well as in other food producing animals such as cattle, to monitor the use of veterinary …

Determination of pesticides and chloroanisoles in water samples using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
Traditionally, pesticide residue analysis methods have focused on the analysis of a single pesticide or a group of chemically related pesticides, but this does not reflect the true varied distribution of residues within the environment. Initially, in this project multi-pesticide residue analysis …

The Effects of Two Polychlorinated Biphenyl Mixtures on Honey Bee (Apis Mellifera) Foraging Behavior and Hypopharyngeal Gland Development
… hypopharyngeal gland and/or foraging behavior. Residue analysis was completed on bees exposed to the LD20 for each PCB mixture. In addition to being more toxic, A1242 was more quickly absorbed and excreted by the honey bee than A1254. Because honey bees appear to be more sensitive to A1242 than …
