“…Nowadays, doping in sport is more multifaceted than ever before with numerous standpoints and opinions coming from all possible conceivable perspectives . Spearheaded by the consistently recurring question as to whether athletes should generally be allowed to utilize doping practices, juridical,medical, and philosophical as well as ethical aspects have been discussed in detail in 2013/2014. In addition, viewpoints on current and future challenges and the (in)efficiency of the existing doping control system have been presented, underlining the complexity of modern sports drug testing, one core element of which is the annually issued Prohibited List as established by the World Anti‐Doping Agency (WADA) .…”

Drug Testing and Analysis

Within the mosaic display of international anti-doping efforts, analytical strategies based on up-to-date instrumentation as well as most recent information about physiology, pharmacology, metabolism, etc., of prohibited substances and methods of doping are indispensable. The continuous emergence of new chemical entities and the identification of arguably beneficial effects of established or even obsolete drugs on endurance, strength, and regeneration, necessitate frequent and adequate adaptations of sports drug testing procedures. These largely rely on exploiting new technologies, extending the substance coverage of existing test protocols, and generating new insights into metabolism, distribution, and elimination of compounds prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). In reference of the content of the 2014 Prohibited List, literature concerning human sports drug testing that was published between October 2013 and September 2014 is summarized and reviewed in this annual banned-substance review, with particular emphasis on analytical approaches and their contribution to enhanced doping controls.
