Players of the NFL don’t trust methods utilized by the WADA. Why did the distrust appear? Let try to understand the reason.
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) made a decision to test players of the National Football League for HGH. Althogh the NFL Players’ Association has agreed, certain skeptic thoughts related to the level of trustworthiness of blood test for HGH were expressed. This test is going to be just a part of the testing for anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs.
Certain specialists who are not linked with the WADA activity directly don’t agree with the methods used by this agency. They justify the skepticism of the NFL players.
Matt Chaney, a chief chronicler of administration of steroids in American football, is sure that the NFL players are skeptic to the WADA anti-doping tests not without any reason. The point of view of the players is justified by Matt Chaney.
Don Catlin, the director of Anti-Doping Research, points out that methods of the WADA for detection of HGH must be transparent. The WADA uses the HGH isoform ratio test introduced by Christian Strasburger.
It is important to notice that according to certain specialists, the method of this test doesn’t have scientific basis. It is not trustworthy. The Director of Anti-Doping Research notes that this test is not good for detection of HGH at all.
There is another test that can be utilized by the WADA to identify athletes who use HGH. Sonksen introduced a certain HGH testing method which is based on physiological biomarkers. But the WADA doesn’t applies the method of Sonksen to catch consumers of HGH.
According to Sonksen, workers of the WADA are not specialists in this area. That’s why they don’t see the priority of one method over the other. But as it was proved by scientists, the HGH biomarker test is better than HGH isoform test.
However experts point out about difference between these two tests, the WADA doesn’t intend to to utilize the HGH biomarker test.
