RESUMEN
Objecave To develop a sensitive and specific LC-MS/MS method for determination of testolactone in human urine.Methods A C_(18 )column(2.1×50mm,3.5μm) was used.The mobile phase Was a mixture of acetonitrile and the buffer solution(ammonium acetate-water solution adjusted with formic acid to pH 3.5)at a flow rate of 0.5ml/min.A mass spectrometer equipped with electrospray ionization source was used as a detector and operated in the positive mode.In multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)mode,the ion transitions of m/z 301→121 and m/z 301→25 was used to qualify and quantify the testolactone,respectively.Results Chromatograms showed no endogenous interfering peaks with the urine blank sample.Each analysis was completed within 7min The calibration wag linear in the concentration range within 0.1～50μg/ml.The intra-batch and inter-batch RSD were less than 10%.The recovery rate of the extraction was about 60%.Conclusions The method is proved to meet the requirements of WADA and be suitable for routine screening.
RESUMEN
Objective To make a survey of medication taken by Chinese athletes and a comparison between Chinese athletes and athletes from other countries in order to get information about how to improve Chinese athletes' performance. Method The information came from the forms"Doping Control Sample Collection" in which athletes answered the question: "What medications have you taken in the past 3 days?" The medicines taken by athletes were classified and statistically analyzed.Results 2,330 athletes and 25 kinds of sports were involved in. Medicines were statistically analyzed with 4 classes: profiling of declaration, vitamins and minerals, medicines for treatments, alternative medicine. Conclusion The survey recorded the types of supplements and medications taken by athletes in China in 1999. Chinese athletes took less vitamins and more alternative medicines than athletes from other countries.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the steroid levels of urine in Chinese athletes. Methods Subjects were 1217 Chinese athlete, 8 kinds of steroids named androsterone (An), etiocholanolone (Etio), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHET), Testosterone (T), Epitestosterone (ET), 5?-androstane-3?, 17?-diol (5?-diol), 5?-androstane-3?, 17?-diol (5?-diol) were measured by gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) after the urine sample being treated with chemical pre-extraction, hydrolysis, extraction and derivatization. Results The urine steroid levels of the Chinese male athlete were higher than those of the female athlete, but both male and female athlete had a lower urine steroids especially testosterone and 5?-androstane-3?,17?-diol, 4～7 times lower than other country's athletes. Some ratios of urine steroids such as An/Etio, T/ET, 5?-diol/5?-diol were relatively steady, which were affected less by gender.
