Metabolic study of GW1516 in equine urine using liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization Q‐Exactive high‐resolution mass spectrometry for doping control

Abstract

For the purposes of doping control of GW1516, the GW1516 sulfoxide and GW1516 sulfone metabolites are recommended as the target analytes to be monitored in equine urine due to their high specificities, long detection times (1 and 4 weeks, respectively), and the ready availability of their reference materials.
