Earlier, some media revealed that the athletes of the 2008 Olympic Games had a urine test again on 20 16. Many netizens are puzzled by this. After so many years, there are no stimulants in the human body. Is it still useful to do a urine test at this time?
It is undoubtedly useful. Why does the author say so? It is because the urine he tested is not excreted by athletes now, but the urine that was sealed before. At that time, it may be because I didn't understand some doping detection methods, or it may be because other factors led to imperfect detection, so I chose to seal it up and keep it for testing after many years.
Every athlete who takes part in the Olympic Games needs a pre-competition check-up. Even after the competition, the top five athletes in each event have to be checked. This urine test is generally conducted once a year, and the specific detection process is as follows:
0 1. Athletes enter the examination room, sign the access control form, make some preparations, make some physical and mental adjustments, and then the prosecutor will take the athletes into the operation room for testing.
02. Athletes choose one of several sample cups and check the safety of the sample cup at the same time. Then, accompanied by the prosecutor, I went to the bathroom to take samples and keep them. In the process of sampling, the prosecutor needs to accompany him all the time, which means that even if he pees, the prosecutor should keep an eye on him.
03. Both sides return to the operation room with samples, and then the inspector will let the athletes choose to put the sample bottles to check the tightness and safety of the sample bottles. After the selection, the athletes poured the urine into bottle B and bottle A successively. The urine in bottle A exceeded the red mark by at least 60 ml, and the urine in bottle B exceeded the blue mark by 30 ml.
04. After the inspectors confirm that the sample in the sample bottle meets the requirements, put the sample bottle into a sealed bag and seal the sample box. At this time, the athlete needs to open the sample cup, and the prosecutor in charge of doping control will check the proportion of urine.
After this series of steps, the prosecutor will ask the athletes some questions and ask them to fill in something truthfully. After that, both parties will confirm each other to ensure the correctness of the information. Finally, the athletes return to the examination room, sign the access control form and get the entry permit.
In fact, in addition to urine test, there is also a method to detect stimulants, that is, hair test, which judges whether the other party is taking stimulants by extracting hair. For example, in Noriko Sakai, the stimulant positive reaction was found by examining the hair. But generally speaking, athletes' hair will not be tested.
Although the operation process of doping test is complicated, it is necessary to ensure the fairness of the competition. Therefore, athletes need to cooperate with their work, and never dream of cheating on doping.
