Professor Mario Thevis from the Germany Sport University Cologne, Cologne chairs the morning session on Drug Testing and Analysis which begins with a talk on the Use of in vitro Metabolism Studies in Doping Control by Tila Kuuranne from the Doping Control laboratory, United Laboratories, Helsinki, Finland. This presentation is followed by a talk on High Resolution/High Accuracy Mass Spectrometry in Doping Controls by Andreas Thomas from the Germany Sport University Cologne, Cologne, Germany. Thomas Piper from the Swiss Laboratory for Doping Analysis, Epalinges, Switzerland will then discuss Applications of Isotope Ration Mass Spectrometry to Sports Drug Testing. The morning session closes with a presentation on Sports Drug Testing for Recombinant Erythropietin by Christian Reichel from Doping Control Laboratory AIT Seibersdorf Laboratories, Seibersdorf, Austria.
Fundamentals of Benchtop GC–MS Data Analysis and Terminology
April 5th 2025In this installment, we will review the fundamental terminology and data analysis principles in benchtop GC–MS. We will compare the three modes of analysis—full scan, extracted ion chromatograms, and selected ion monitoring—and see how each is used for quantitative and quantitative analysis.
Characterizing Plant Polysaccharides Using Size-Exclusion Chromatography
April 4th 2025With green chemistry becoming more standardized, Leena Pitkänen of Aalto University analyzed how useful size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) could be in characterizing plant polysaccharides.
