Here’s what I don’t get about the article. You have this expert providing information on how specifically EPO is measured for by using the blood cells and then says random testing is essential.

If blood is taken immediately following the fight and it can be measured for increased capacity and then there is the fact that synthetic EPO molecule can be checked for in urine. http://www.rice.edu/~jenky/sports/epo.html Random checking of urine is a direct method. Even if an undetectable masking agent is used, it wipes out all the EPO, not just the synthetic stuff so they will know it was washed. So why make the statement random blood testing is essential? I’m having a hard time believing the veracity of this article. It’s either that or this expert is lying.
