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.
