Luginbühl M, Gaugler S. Dried blood spots for anti-doping: Why just going volumetric may not be sufficient. Drug Test Anal 2020; 13:69-73.

Abstract
The perspective discusses quantitative DBS analysis for anti-doping testing in an athletic population and why only using volumetric sampling for this subgroup might not be enough. It presents examples to highlight where HCT variations occur, followed by a whole blood to plasma ratio and an HCT extraction bias discussion. Finally, options to correct for the HCT bias are presented.

Evaluation of uncertainty sources in the determination of testosterone in urine by calibration-based and isotope dilution quantification using ultra high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.

Abstract
Three quantification methodologies, namely calibration with internal standard (Cal-IS, non-weighted), weighted calibration with internal standard (wCal-IS) and isotope pattern deconvolution (IPD) have been used for the determination of testosterone in urine by LC-MS/MS. Uncertainty has been calculated and compared for the three methodologies through intra- and inter-laboratory reproducibility assays. IPD showed the best performance for the intra-laboratory reproducibility, with RSD and combined uncertainty values below 4% and 9% respectively. wCal-IS showed similar performance, while Cal-IS where not constant and clearly worse at the lowest concentration assayed (2ng/mL) reaching RSD values up to 16%. The inter-laboratory assay indicated similar results although wCal-IS RSD (20%) was higher than IPD (10%) and Cal-IS get worse with RSD higher than 40% for the lowest concentration level. Uncertainty budgets calculated for the three procedures revealed that intercept and slope were the most important factors contributing to uncertainty for Cal-IS. The main factors for wCal-IS and IPD were the volumes of sample and/or standard measured.
