Tx for the answers, Python. Will be very interesting to see what WADA does since they arent merging their appeal with UCI, and wether CAS will just dismiss it alltogether or acept it as corroborative evidence.

blood doping plasticizers

the test for plasticizers is already out of date, blood stored in glass instead of plastics will nullify the test and mean blood doping is undetectable.

That was my question the moment I was aware of the plasticizer test being developed. Is there any reason why the can't store and transfuse from glass bottles?

they can. but at some point, WADA will come up with a GLASSticizer test, and then what storage options remain?

seriously, the plasticizer test must be further developed IMO, even if its only to make the blooddoper's life more difficult.
