Emerging drugs--potential for misuse in sport and doping control detection strategies

Mini Rev Med Chem. 2007 May;7(5):531-7. doi: 10.2174/138955707780619590.

Abstract

Preventive doping research includes the development of methods for the detection of new or emerging drugs to be implemented in routine screening analysis. Candidates with great potential for misuse in elite sports include selective androgen receptor modulators, growth hormone secretagogues, hypoxia-inducible factor stabilizers and erythropoietin mimetics.
