Doping test conducting to athletes or players of Olympics

Doping is the generic term used to describe a broad variety of prohibited or unethical acts involving the use of a drug or a blood product to improve athletic performance. Doping is now a global problem that follows international sporting events worldwide. International sports federations, led by the International Olympic Committee, have for the past half century attempted to stop the spread of this problem, with little effect. It was expected that, with educational programs, testing, and supportive medical treatment, this substance-abusing behavior would decrease. Unfortunately, this has not been the case. Only athletes competing at the Olympics, Paralympics and World Championships are subject to doping control. Athletes can be tested any time, any place. We test to deter those vulnerable to a doping decision and to find those who chose to cheat by using banned substances. Testing can take place in-competition at events, or out-of-competition, in training venues, or even at an athlete's home. While doping in a number of forms has received widespread international publicity since the 1960s, the use of performance-enhancing substances has a much longer athletic history. Long-distance swimmers in the nineteenth century experimented with stimulant use. Road-racing cyclists in the early days of European racing employed caffeine, ether, and sugar mixtures, and in the 1960s, barbiturates use was common among cyclists to delay the onset of fatigue and to sharpen their reflexes.
