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.
