Generic Pharmaceuticals as a Source of Diuretic Contamination in Athletes Subject to Sport Drug Testing

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2021
This paper describes nine instances of positive anti-doping tests that could be accounted for by the use of permitted generic prescription drugs contaminated with diuretics, which are prohibited in sport at all times under the WADA Prohibited List.

Perspectives and Strategies for Anti-Doping Analysis [PDF]

Bioanalysis, 2019
Bioanalysis is continually evolving and reaching new goals. Within this unending process, anti-doping analysis follows its own trajectory, but cannot go forward alone and has to use all of the bioanalytical strategies and tools, adapting them to sport testing. Among these, biological matrix choice is one of the most important weapons.

Prediction of plasma volume and total hemoglobin mass with machine learning

Physiological Reports, 2023
Hemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) is used for the clinical diagnosis of anemia, and in sports as a marker of blood doping. [Hb] is however subject to significant variations mainly due to shifts in plasma volume (PV).
