Mullin C
Curr Opin Insect Sci . 2018 Mar; 10:194-200. PMID: 29588008
Honey bees are sensitive to widespread co-formulants used in agrochemicals, and evaluation of the role of these 'inerts or inactives' in pollinator decline is only in its formative stages. Lack...

Fine J, Mullin C, Frazier M, Reynolds R
J Econ Entomol . 2017 Sep; 110(5):1993-2001. PMID: 28961741
Owing to the recent declines in honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) populations, there is a need for field and laboratory studies to investigate threats to pollinator health. This study examines...

Chen J, Fine J, Mullin C
Sci Total Environ . 2017 Sep; 612:415-421. PMID: 28863372
Organosilicon surfactants are the most potent adjuvants available for formulating and applying agricultural pesticides and fertilizers, household cleaning and personal care products, dental impressions and medicines. Risk assessment of pesticides,...

Fine J, Mullin C
Environ Sci Technol . 2017 Sep; 51(19):11412-11422. PMID: 28858486
In chronic feeding assays, the common agrochemical inert formulant N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) is at least 20 times more toxic to honey bee larvae than to adults, but the underlying cause of...

Fine J, Cox-Foster D, Mullin C
Sci Rep . 2017 Jan; 7:40499. PMID: 28091574
Honey bees are highly valued for their pollination services in agricultural settings, and recent declines in managed populations have caused concern. Colony losses following a major pollination event in the...

Traynor K, Pettis J, Tarpy D, Mullin C, Frazier J, Frazier M, et al.
Sci Rep . 2016 Sep; 6:33207. PMID: 27628343
This study measured part of the in-hive pesticide exposome by analyzing residues from live in-hive bees, stored pollen, and wax in migratory colonies over time and compared exposure to colony...
7.
Mullin C, Fine J, Reynolds R, Frazier M
Front Public Health . 2016 Jun; 4:92. PMID: 27242985
Agrochemical risk assessment that takes into account only pesticide active ingredients without the spray adjuvants commonly used in their application will miss important toxicity outcomes detrimental to non-target species, including...

Mullin C, Chen J, Fine J, Frazier M, Frazier J
Pestic Biochem Physiol . 2015 May; 120:27-35. PMID: 25987217
Dr. Fumio Matsumura's legacy embraced a passion for exploring environmental impacts of agrochemicals on non-target species such as bees. Why most formulations are more toxic to bees than respective active...

Chen J, Mullin C
J Agric Food Chem . 2015 Feb; 63(21):5120-5. PMID: 25654266
Trisiloxane surfactants (TSSs) have been associated with honeybee learning impairment and the ongoing global bee decline. A liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry strategy for the identification of TSSs from agrochemical adjuvants and...

Chen J, Mullin C
Food Chem . 2014 Apr; 158:473-9. PMID: 24731372
Nonylphenol and octylphenol ethoxylates (NP(EO)n and OP(EO)n) are major toxicants in agrochemicals used around beehives. Here we developed a LC-MS method for analysis of NP(EO)3-13 and OP(EO)3-13 oligomers in bee...
