Resource description
Project Title: Detection of recombinant human LH as a doping agent
Researchers: D. Handelsman (ANZAC Research Institute, Concord Hospital, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia), R. Kazlauskas (Australian Sports Drug Testing Laboratory, Pymble, Australia), G. Trout (Australian Government Analytical Laboratories, Sydney, Australia)
Year accepted: 2004
Summary: This one year project aimed to undertake clinical administration studies using single doses of recombinant human LH (rhLH) and recombinant hCG (rhCG) to determine their effects on (a) conventional urine steroid profiles, (b) blood hormone analyses and (c) to provide samples for development of novel tests for rhLH and rhCG as sports doping agents in men.
