Avoid Falsely Accusing Female Athletes Who Use Levonorgestrel of Doping

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Levonorgestrel, a hormonal contraceptive, metabolises to 18‐methyl‐19‐noretiocholanolone which is also the main metabolite of the prohibited substance 18‐methyl‐19‐nortestosterone. Analysing for levonorgestrel and/or tetrahydronorgestrel is essential to avoid misinterpreting 18‐methyl‐19‐noretiocholanolone findings.

Post‐Mortem Identification and Toxicological Findings of Fluetonitazepyne and Isotonitazepyne

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
In early 2025, five death cases in Finland tested positive for fluetonitazepyne and one for isotonitazepyne in urine drug screening. A peak corresponding to O‐dealkylated fluetonitazepyne, the 4‐OH‐nitazepyne metabolite, was present in all fluetonitazepyne‐positive urine samples and was later used in the identification of isotonitazepynein one fatal ...

Detection of a Single Microdose of Testosterone and Recombinant EPO in Healthy Volunteers

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Exogenous T was detected with IRMS regardless of T/E elevation—high serum T indicative for IRMS. rhEPO was detected in urine for 72 h in ITP and CP, and Tasso showed less sensitivity than previous DBS devices tested. ABSTRACT Doping with testosterone (T) and erythropoietin (EPO) in low doses (micro‐doping) is a challenge to detect.

Long‐Term Stability of Ethyl Glucuronide in Hair: A 10‐Year Retrospective Analysis of 909 Samples by LC–MS/MS

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
EtG hair analysis has a standard method for detecting alcohol abuse. In this study, we assessed the long‐term stability of EtG in hair stored up to 10 years. A total of 909 samples originally analyzed between 2013 and 2022 were re‐tested in 2023 by LC‐MS/MS.

Evaluation of Therapeutic Opioids in Hair of Neonatal and Pediatric Patients

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This study investigated the incorporation of novel and traditional medically used opioids into the hair of 118 pediatric and neonatal patients. Concentrations (median [range]) in hair were as follows: fentanyl: 4.03 pg/mg [0.10–343], sufentanil: 0.31 pg/mg [0.10–8.64], remifentanil: 0.14 pg/mg [0.10–0.43], and morphine: 27.4 pg/mg [1.0–1870].

Estimation of Plasma Volume by Machine Learning to Improve the Interpretation of the Athlete Biological Passport

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A new machine learning model for plasma volume (PV) estimation was applied within the ABP framework. PV estimation was applied through visual displays or corrected ABP thresholds. With a favorable assessment from ABP experts, these results support further application of this model in the presence of specific confounding factors.
