High sensitive analysis of steroids in doping control using gas chromatography/time-of-flight mass-spectrometry.

abstract：:In doping control analysis, the characterization of urinary steroid metabolites is of high interest for a targeted and long-term detection of prohibited anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS). In this work, the structure of a long-term metabolite of dehydrochloromethyltestosterone (DHCMT) was elucidated. Altogether, 8 pos...
