- Abstract
- The previously presented screening method for doping substances using GC-MS/MS by Van Eenoo et al. has been one year in operation in our laboratory. This experience allowed us to make improvements to this method in terms of detection limits and quality control. Now the method is able to detect over 150 compounds from different classes (steroids, narcotics, stimulants, beta-2-agonists and hormone antagonists) in a qualitative way. In the quantitative part, the traditional steroid profile with most important endogenous steroids is expanded in order to improve the detection and identification of endogenous steroid misuse. Besides these also norandrosterone, salbutamol, morfine and the major metabolite of cannabis are quantified. Methods developed for anti-doping purposes should be subjected to the highest level of quality. Here, parameters to control each step in the methodology were added: hydrolysis efficiency, derivatisation efficiency and microbiological degradation are monitored in every single sample. Additionally, special attention is paid to the relation between parameters indicating degradation by micro-organisms and the reliability of the steroid profile. In this presentation, the modifications, improvements and ‘tricks’ will be presented.
