Quantification of synthetic glucocorticoids in dried blood spot samples for in-competition sports drug testing
Resource description
Project Title: Quantification of synthetic glucocorticoids in dried blood spot samples for in-competition sports drug testing
Researchers: Dr. M. Thevis, Dr. W. Schänzer
Institution: German Sport University Cologne, Germany
Year accepted: 2016
Summary: The obtained results provide the desirable information about the amount of the active, circulating corticoid just before or shortly after the competition. This will enable a superior basis to decide whether the detected amount of the drug was of benefit to the athlete or not without causing expensive or invasive additional sampling needs.
