Will you be examined for the steroids anabolic?
Why should there be test of steroid anabolic in the sports?
After all, a swimmer taking of the steroids cannot endanger
the national security, because him or it does not have access
to the secrecies of defense. A group of bodybuilders on the
steroids anabolic are not a danger with the public, unless
somebody steals their creatin or protein of lactalbumine!
Let us start with a technical discussion in the way in which
work of tests of drug and of at which point they precise are.
We will discuss the countermeasures then employed by athletes
to try to beat the test of steroid anabolic.
A SHORT HISTORY OF THE TESTS OF DRUG
The international Olympic Commission (COI) carries out most
precise and precis of all the test routines drug-. The COI
began the test of drug to the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico
City. With the first only tests for amphetamines and any other
relative execution of drugs of improvement were carried out.
Steroids anabolic, as a group were added to the list of substances
prohibited in 1973. The first Olympic Games in which determines
the steroids anabolic, were carried out were the Olympic Games
of Montreal in 1976.
TESTS OF DRUG
ANALYZES Of URINE
More often the test used of drug for the test of steroid
anabolic is analysis of urine. The bodybuilder or any other
athlete is advised test after being allotted initially, the
second or third place in competition. The athletes who competed
with, but did not place in the three principal ones, can also
be randomly selected to be examined. The person must present
herself/itself to the site test right after the ceremony of
rewards. The athlete is invited to urinate in the presence
of a civil servant to prevent the trifouillant sample. The
sample of urine is divided into two samples: the sample is
stored under narrow safety, to only be employed while waiting
for the results of the tests on the sample two. The sample
two, the sample of test, is then subjected to various forms
of chemical analysis. One of the generally most used tests
is the process of gas chromatography.
GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY
In this test which a chromatograph converts the urine into
gas, examining outside trace of made up prohibited. Under
pressure the gas crosses the very sensitive columns, which
separate the various substances in the easily discernible
components. So metabolites (produced decomposition) of the
steroids anabolic are detected, the next stage is to use a
device called a mass spectrometer to determine exactly which
them steroids are in the athlete the 'sample of S.
LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY
Instead of employing the method of gas chromatography, a
variation known under the name of liquid chromatography can
be employed for the test of steroid anabolic. Again, of the
specialized columns of the chemicals are employed. The liquid
urine is exposed to these columns, and the various components
of the urine assemble the columns at various levels. Components
of drug can be separated by color and distance
RADIOIMMUNOANALYSE (RIA)
This test was developed with the beginning of the year seventy,
and was regarded as being then end-all doping the use in the
sports. Since RIA involves the use of the radioactive isotopes,
the number of laboratories which can carry out this test are
limited. For this process, antibodies of radioactive isotopes
and foreign substance of detail are added to a sample of urine.
If no prohibited steroid is present, the antibodies and the
isotopes combine and can be filtered out of the solution.
There would be no remaining radioactivity in the sample. In
a positive sample, the antibodies do not combine with the
isotopes, and the radioactivity remains. The chromatography
and the tests of mass spectrometer are considered the top
of the line in the test of steroid anabolic, and replaced
tests of RIA.
TEST OF REPORT/RATIO OF TESTOSTERONE
In the past, the male athletes who knew that competitors
with a particular event were to be examined for steroids,
would stop well simply the use of the steroids before competition.
When they stopped the anabolic use of steroid, they substituted
pure testosterone. The goal was to maintain the force, classifies,
and other profits of execution.
The scientists and the testers of drug realized of the EC
of the countermeasures and in the answer they developed a
against-against-measurement. While the testosterone is broken
up, one of its products of decomposition, epitestosterone,
is manufactured. The normal report/ratio of testosterone to
the epitestosterone is 1: 1. When an athlete takes artificial
testosterone, the quantity of testosterone in the urine is
increased, but the quantity of epitestosterone excreted does
not change. Thus the report/ratio of testosterone to the epitestosterone
increases considerably. If report/ratio of the athlete the
's exceeds the 6:1, the athlete is eliminated. For example,
a powerlifter was examined and his report/ratio was 100:1!
Is not only the indicative report/ratio of the use of testosterone
by an athlete, it also indicates to the testing device if
the individual employed elevated levels of the steroids anabolic.
When an athlete employs the steroids anabolic, the body the
's has testosterone levels are clearly reduced. When the user
ceases taking steroids, the body the 's has summaries of production
of testosterone, to again bring testosterone levels to the
state of pre-steroid. In certain cases, the athlete the 'body
of S produces in excess testosterone, of this fact shifting
testosterone with the report/ratio of epitestosterone to the
top, after the acceptable higher limit of 6: 1.
EXACTITUDE Of TEST
From 1986 to 1988, the Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson was
examined 19 times for the steroids anabolic with various contests.
Although it employed the steroids anabolic throughout this
period, all the tests were negative. Even in 1988, the Olympic
athletes employing of the steroids managed to pass to COI
sophisticated tests of steroid anabolic. More than 50 male
athletes who competed with in the Olympic Games of Seoul later
are proven to have the steroids anabolic used in six months
before the plays. These results emerged after more sophisticated
procedure of tests was followed on the samples 1100 of urine
(gathered during the plays), which had been stored.
The current possibilities of detection for some steroids
are in the .25 Mg range (nanogram). This means that the specific
metabolites for a drug such as Decaf-durabolin can be measured,
even when they exist in a concentration of a quarter leaves
per billion! In the majority of the cases the tests can detect
the steroid use for only as long as the steroid exerts a physiological
effect on the athlete the 'system of S.
There are many factors which increase or decrease a bodybuilder
of the 'possibilities of S of passing or not to pass a test
of steroid anabolic. Those include:
The type of steroids anabolic employed how long the individual
was on drugs which proportionings employed the purity of the
steroids the type of cycle steroid followed the individual
the 'genetics of S
He 's because of these factors that the bodybuilders and
other athletes developed a whole series of meter of test of
steroid anabolic measurement to be tests of drug.
