The National Dope Testing Laboratory (NDTL) has indigenously developed six new and rare Reference Materials (RMs), which is the purest form of chemical required for anti-doping analysis in all WADA-accredited Laboratories across the world.
- The six RMs have been developed in less than a year by NDTL in association with the National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER)-Guwahati and the CSIR-Indian Institute of Integrative Medicine (IIIM), Jammu.
- The availability of these RMs would help the entire anti-doping community to strengthen their testing capabilities.
- This would also help in mutual cooperation among countries for promoting fair play in sports policy the world over.
- These Reference Materials are not readily available across the world but are needed by every WADA-accredited laboratory for their anti-doping analysis.
- India itself has been importing RMs from Canada and Australia, however, with this scientific development India has indeed taken a step towards Atmanirbhar Bharat.
