Doping control

Doping control is the process of testing athletes to ensure they are not using banned substances or methods to unfairly improve their performance. It typically involves collecting urine or blood samples, which are then analyzed in laboratories for performance-enhancing drugs, stimulants, or other prohibited substances. The goal is to maintain fairness and integrity in sports by deterring athletes from using substances that can harm their health or give them an unfair advantage. Doping control is conducted randomly or targeted, and athletes are required to comply with testing procedures before and during competitions.
