Protein chips for high-throughput doping screening in athletes.
Sport and doping are a contradiction in terms, however, doping abuse in sports has been a serious problem for many years. The systematic screening of every athlete for all prohibited drugs should be an indispensable feature of the Olympic Games. The gas chromatography mass spectrometry method is reserved as a reference method, but is limited by its low throughput. The advent of protein chip technology may enable the screening of all athletes for any illegal use of drugs.
