Developed by the Swiss company DBS Systems, sampling kits are used to conduct this minimally invasive test, which involves collecting a small amount of blood from the rider’s fingertip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The analysis of the samples is conducted independently at the Laboratory of Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology, Geneva University, using a peer review method to determine the presence or absence and amount of tramadol and its two main metabolites. The results are then submitted to the University of Lausanne\u2019s Centre of Research and Expertise in Anti-Doping Sciences (REDs) for a final independent review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
