  • Relation Between Exercise Performance and Blood Storage Condition and Storage Time in Autologous Blood Doping
    biology Review Relation between Exercise Performance and Blood Storage Condition and Storage Time in Autologous Blood Doping Benedikt Seeger and Marijke Grau * Molecular and Cellular Sports Medicine, German Sport University Cologne, 50677 Cologne, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-221-4982-6116 Simple Summary: Autologous blood doping (ABD) refers to sampling, storage, and re-infusion of one’s own blood to improve circulating red blood cell (RBC) mass and thus the oxygen transport and finally the performance capacity. This illegal technique employed by some athletes is still difficult to detect. Hence knowledge of the main effects of ABD is needed to develop valid detection methods. Performance enhancement related to ABD seems to be well documented in the literature, but applied study designs might affect the outcome that was analyzed herein. The majority of recent studies investigated the effect of cold blood storage at 4 ◦C, and only few studies focused on cryopreservation, although it might be suspected that cryopreservation is above all applied in sport. The storage duration—the time between blood sampling and re-infusion—varied in the reported literature. In most studies, storage duration might be too short to fully restore the RBC mass. It is thus concluded that most reported studies did not display common practice and that the reported performance outcome might be affected by these two variables. Thus, knowledge of the real effects of ABD, as applied in sport, on performance and associated parameters are needed to develop reliable detection techniques. Abstract: Professional athletes are expected to continuously improve their performance, and some might also use illegal methods—e.g., autologous blood doping (ABD)—to achieve improvements.

Pebble Beach Golf Links® was the first public course to be selected as the No.1 golf course in America by Golf Digest in 2001. It has been the site of golf’s most prestigious tourna- ments, including the annual AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, and five U.S. Open Championships. Pebble Beach will host another U.S. Amateur in 2018 and its sixth U.S. Open in 2019. Truly the most coveted course in the world to play! Spyglass Hill® Spyglass Hill is without question one of the top public golf courses in the U.S. Ranked #48 in the U.S, it is located on the Pebble Beach peninsula. The PGA TOUR®, consistently lists Spyglass Hill’s holes 6, 8 and 16 among the toughest on the TOUR, and during the 1999 US Amateur, the stroke average of the field during medal play was in excess of 79. Spanish Bay® The Links at Spanish Bay was built on vast sandy wasteland ideally suited for creating a true coastal Scottish links-style course. Development began in 1985, and was planned to protect the native dunes habitat. Prior cham- pionship tournaments included the 1993 Shivas Irons Games of the Links and NorCal Toyota Challenge.

Juli 2017 www.oesterreich-rundfahrt.at Thomas Rohreggers Tour-Analyse Thomas Rohregger, ORF-Radexperte und Rundfahrtssieger von 2008, analysiert das Starterfeld der 69. Österreich Rundfahrt. Wer sind seine Favoriten? Und wie steht es um die Chancen der Österreicher? Fakt ist, die Tour 2017 mit zehn Giro d’Italia-, zwei Tour de France-, zwei Vuelta- sowie sechs Ö-Tour-Etappensiegern, zudem zwei Weltmeistern und einem Olympiasieger, ist eine der bestbe - setzten in der Neuzeit des Radsports: ***** Sterne: Rein Taramäe, Katusha Alpecin Wer Gesamtelfter bei der Tour de France (2011) wurde, Etappen beim Giro d’Italia und der Vuelta gewann, zudem vier Rundfahrtssiege verbuchen konnte, zählt zu den Top-Favoriten. Für mich war aber zuletzt beeindruckend, wie der Este auf der schweren Tour de Suisse- Etappe auf den Tiefenbachferner die Konkurrenz zertrümmert und so den Gesamtsieg für seinen Teamkollegen Simon Spilak geebnet hat. Und auf dem Gletscher wurde er auch noch Tagessiebenter! Das war eine unglaubliche Leistung. ***** Sterne: Ilnur Zakarin, Katusha Alpecin Der Fünfte des heurigen Giro d’Italia hatte nach der dreiwöchigen Italienrundfahrt eine Pause. Er soll sich für die Vuelta vorbereiten und ist für mich die große Unbekannte. Laut Papierform ist er der absolute Top-Star und hat auch bei Grand Tours das Zeug für ein Po - dium. Ich glaube, Ilnur wird sich während der Österreich Rundfahrt entscheiden, ob er Vollgas gibt. ***** Sterne: Miguel Ángel López, Astana Pro Team Er ist eines der größten Talente im Radsport.
