Anti-doping agencies introduce new tools to catch those that dope

While sportspeople that dope find new methods to remain undetectable, anti-doping agencies create new tools in order to catch those who take forbidden substances. One of new tools elaborated into anti-doping system is biological passport. It helps to determine whether a sportsperson has doped. The biological passport measures certain biomarkers which may indicate whether an individual has taken certain substances. So, it can measure hemoglobin levels. Unexplained decreased or high hemoglobin levels may indicate doping. So, the biological passport sets physical changes that play significant role in detection.
It is obvious that anti-doping policy becomes more progressive. It creates new ways to catch dopers and make sports free from doping.
If you compare drug tests which have been applied earlier with those which are utilized today, you can notice that the difference is great. Anti-doping efforts are significant. Drug testing becomes more advanced.
It was also created a test for detection of CERA. This drug was initially developed in order to cure anemia connected with kidney dysfunctions. Since earlier there was not any drug test that could determine metabolites of this substance, Rashid Ramzi of Bahrain avoided detection at the Beijing Olympics. Recently his sample was re-analyzed. Anti-doping officials determined that this sportsman had taken CERA. As a result, Rashid Ramzi was stripped of his awards.
Earlier it was hard and even quite impossible to catch those that applied HGH. Lately a blood test for this medication was also developed.
Another new drug test, known as Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry, was also recently created. This test helps to determine whether testosterone has been administered from outsides or it has been secreted in the body naturally.
Thus, anti-doping system is more sophisticated today. Anti-doping officials claim that they will be capable to make sports free from usage of doping products.
