Confiscated black market products and nutritional supplements with non‐approved ingredients analyzed in the cologne doping control laboratory 2009

Abstract: Doping control laboratories are frequently confronted with new substances that may be misused by athletes. Besides new pharmaceuticals, where method development for their detection is dependent on the availability of the substance and corresponding administration studies, some professional and amateur athletes are using illicit 'black market' products, which either differ from known pharmaceuticals but cause similar effects or still are undergoing clinical trials and are therefore rarely available to doping co… Show more

“…The applied methods do not allow the detection of trace amounts, therefore liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry methods with the use of deuterated internal standards are more suitable. Despite the reported illegal use of protein-and peptide-based substances and selective androgen receptor modulators in elite and amateur sport, no products labeled as such were present in the preparations seized [5].…”

“…The identification of active ingredients in confiscated illegally distributed anabolic steroid products and/or black market drugs was previously reported by Walters et al (1990), Musshoff et al (1997), Ritsch et al (2000), Thevis et al (2008) [1][2][3][4] and Kohler et al (2009) [5].…”

“…In spite of the fact that the market offers numerous permitted supplementary products, marketed as FS, their administration is not absolutely safe and hides certain real risks for the sportsmen because the post-production FS quality and quantity control is not mandatory unlike that on medicinal products. This is the major factor underlying the alarming reports published by numerous researchers revealing undeclared substances in FS [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. The lack of obligatory analytical control and the liberal regulation policy on FS can cause: incorporation of deliberately undeclared substances; accidental pollution during production (accidental mixing of banned substances and the supplement) or false products.…”

“…Besides, their ergogenic ability has been reported, so they are becoming very appreciated as substances of abuse by cheating athletes that seek new alternatives to traditional doping [12,13]. In fact, several of these GHRPs are available in the black market and can be obtained easily on the Internet [14,15]. Consequently, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) incorporated GHRPs in its Prohibited List of doping substances since 2013, and must be detectable by anti-doping laboratories [16].…”
