Antidoping Flashcards
prohibited at all times
anabolic agents
peptide hormones, growth factors, related substance, mimetic
beta 2 agonists
hormone and metabolic regulators
diuretics and masking agents
prohibited in competition
stimulants
narcotics
cannabinoids
glucocorticoids
beta blockers
prohibited methods
manipulation of blood
chemical and physical manipulation - tampering
gene doping potential
athlete whereabouts - national registered
all time location - give a specific hour not each day where their location is made available
athlete whereabouts - domestic testing pool
not as strict but moved up if missed or previous usage
3 drug test misses per year =
potential 2 year ban
how to test if a product is safe
informed
how many anti doping rule violations are there (ADRV)
11
typical measurement techniques
chromatography - mass spectrometry
athlete biological passport
patterns in biological markers found they had blood doped
WADA regularly monitored blood markers to screen for blood doping
2009 launch containing haematological module and later steroidal module
what is blood doping
manipulate contents of you blood
methods of blood doping
homologous tranfusion
autologous tranfusion
direct stimulation of blood cell production (EPO)
indirect stimulation eg EPO stimulating agents
synthetic oxygen carriers
what is the steroidal module
assesses series of steroids measured in blood
individual steroids and ratios
eg anabolic steroids cause unusual ratios
anti doping research traditionally
improving ways to catch cheats eg
develop new techniques to measure peptide hormones
long term metabolites of testosterone
anti doping research currently
improved analysis and staying ahead of potential methods eg
novel sample types and analysis methods
rapid in situ monitoring
threat of concealing dopants from screens
