Hematide - Here We Go Again

Hematide is synthetic. Should be easy to test for. My guess is that WADA
already has a test for it.

Maybe not. As I reported back in July, Hematide is a synthetic peptide
and will probably have a very short half-life. So, unless it's tagged
it may be very hard to test for it or any by-products or residue.

It's long-acting (pegylated). It will be easy to test for.

OK, you are correct. It is a long-lasting agent and they've even
developed mono-clonal Ab to it. So detection should be no problem.
