Extrait

We studied indirect detection models of erythropoietin abuse (EPO) on blood samples collected 48-hr after administration of the drug during 6 weeks of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) treatment. Although the efficiency of OFF-models was preserved, we found a loss of sensitivity of ON-models. This study also revealed an increased percentage of stomatocytes in athletes receiving rHuEPO
