I saw this quote from Anne Gripper:
“If it’s a positive test for CERA EPO or growth hormone our results management process means that we have a very fast procedure for suspending a rider almost immediately. However if it’s a test that suggests a biological profile looks suspicious, then the procedure takes longer. We need to monitor the profile and seek further analysis.”

Can they really test for GH? I thought that test wasn't yet working properly? If it is, they'll be the first sporting gov't body to ever have a test for it.

    could be very interesting if they have an outright test developed for it. i suppose it would have to be watertight before using as well....
