Is the Human Growth Hormone Detectable in Urine?
This question is still being debated upon, and with a lot of controversies. Research says, that the hormone is undetectable in urine. Blood investigations reveal whether a person has taken growth hormone or not, if the test is carried out within 72 hours of hormone administration. If this time has passed, and thereafter the blood test is conducted, it will demonstrate a negative result, although the person might have administered the hormone-supplement.
Scientists state that the blood sample is a lot more reliable for conducting anti-doping tests than urine. Urine samples contain less than one percent of HGH. Also, testing of the hormone’s presence in urine needs lots of scientific resources and time.
The US anti-doping agency research has funded a company called Ceres Nanosciences to invent a new technology called “Nanotrap TM ESP particles. According to them, this test will allow HGH testing in urine successfully. The technology will help detect the proteins present in very small quantities in urine which can not be done by other tests. This technology has been developed by Ceres Nanosciences in collaboration with George Mason University in Fairfax and Italy’s Instituto Superiore di Sanita.
The CEO of Ceres Nanosciences, Tom Dunlap, said that this new urine test for growth hormone detection was first reported in July 2009. Mr. Petricoin and Mr. Liotta who are members of Ceres scientific advisory committee, have generated nanoparticles which are very small in size, and can get attached to HGH and make it detectable. While blood tests are believed to be effectively used for doping tests, no athlete has ever demonstrated a positive test.
The test for identifying the growth hormone in urine, is still in the process of perfection and probably will be out very soon. USADA and other anti-doping agencies are planning for a non-invasive way of carrying out this test for the athlete’s convenience. This hormone breaks down into small products after it is injected into the body. But these broken down products are used to develop molecular markers for them. The molecular markers help in the hormone detection in urine and blood indirectly. This is an intelligent way of tracking the evidence against doping.
