Abstract

Endogenous steroids are amongst the most misused doping agents in sports. Their presence poses a major challenge for doping control laboratories. Current threshold levels do not allow for the detection of all endogenous steroid misuse due to great interindividual variations in urinary steroid concentrations. A method has been developed and validated to screen for traditionally monitored endogenous steroids in doping control as well as specific hydroxylated/oxygenated metabolites in order to enhance the detection capabilities for the misuse of endogenous steroids.
