How do isotope fingerprints support doping control investigations?
10 Nov 2023Synthetic replicas of endogenous steroids are both chemically and pharmacologically indistinguishable from their natural counterparts. By examining isotopes within these steroids, distinct isotope fingerprints emerge in urinary samples, creating a reliable discrimination framework. Explore the concept of Isotope Fingerprints and their application in doping control investigations. Discover how these fingerprints play a crucial role in distinguishing between naturally produced (endogenous) and externally administered (exogenous) steroids.

LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis.
