In a break with tradition I have news? Witch tests to determine doping courtesy of Inrng...

New anti-doping test
Some good news to end on. Blood doping has been the scourge of pro cycling but even if the bio passport has helped police things there’s been no test to catch cheats using autologous blood doping. Until now. There’s a new test that ready to be submitted for WADA verification. The test, called Tauchkörperdichtetest – literally “body density immersion test” – is based on body density and triggered when riders infuse red blood cells. Pioneered by a team of researchers led by Doctor Scherz of Vienna University the principle is simple: when a rider infuses red blood cells they are loading up with iron-rich blood cells which, given iron is heavy, increases the density of the human body.

A portable tank is filled with 100 litres of water and then a sachet of special salt is added to the mix to make a solution with an identical density to the human body, 1.062g/cm3. Then the athlete climbs into the tank and it’s simple: if they float they are clean and if they sink then the water is drained and refilled again along with the same blend of salt and if they sink again then an anti-doping prosecution can begin.
