Abstract:Growing interest among several horse-breeder associations has initiated the development of a screening procedure to test for anabolic agents in hair, which has the advantage over blood and urine specimens of allowing long-term detection. An analytical method was established to monitor in tails or manes several anabolic substances available as veterinary medicines or as so-called nutritional supplements (clenbuterol, different esters or prohormones of nandrolone and testosterone). The analytical procedure to de… Show more
“…This is due to the use of damping gas at the optimized flow rate. As reported before [16,17] testosterone is not detectable in hair samples collected from non-treated geldings. In the present study, testosterone was not detectable in the mane and tail samples obtained before administration.…”

“…Regarding steroid analysis in horse hair samples, boldenone was detected in the mane and tail retrospectively for up to 12 months after boldenone undecylenate administration to two different horses [15]. As recently showed by Anielski et al [16] and Popot et al [17], testosterone has been detected in mane and tail samples from a stallion but was not detected in hair of a gelding before administration of testosterone enanthate. Testosterone was detected in a hair sample taken 1 month after administration.…”

“…The detection limit for testosterone propionate achieved on the two TQ mass spectrometers defined as 3 S/N was about 0.5 pg mg −1 , which is appropriate [5,14,16] for the analysis of anabolic esters in hair.…”

Neues Beweismaterial zum Tod des Rennpferds Phar Lap (siehe Photo) lieferten hochauflösende Röntgen‐Fluoreszenz(XRF)‐ und Röntgen‐Nahkantenabsorptions(XANES)‐Analysen von Mähnenhaaren mithilfe von Synchrotronstrahlung. Die Ergebnisse deuten auf Arsenaufnahme und ‐metabolismus hin – das Rennpferd erlag folglich einer Vergiftung.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
