ADAS obtained competence in blood analyzes especially since the interest for blood testing has increased during past few years. Blood tests are mainly used for measuring blood counts and it has its benefit for screening the suspicious cases on EPO substitution.
International federations collect blood profiles on athletes which gives the opportunity for planning further anti-doping activities. ADAS has experience in this field and we can carry out blood tests if we have requirements.
Blood samples have to be analyzed within 24 hours from extracting. We can arrange sending the samples to one of WADA accredited laboratories where they will be analyzed by biomedical scientists who are experts for analyzing blood samples at doping controls. Our logistic help in laboratories can also measure blood parameters, hemoglobin and reticulocyte.
