In September 2010 the Agenţia Naţională Anti-Doping (ANAD), the National Anti-Doping Agency of Romania, has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete Sorin Mînerean after his A and B samples tested positive for the prohibited substance testosterone with a T/E ratio above the WADA threshold.
At the hearing the Athlete denied the use of testosterone and stated that he only used the supplements Animal Pak and M-Stak.
The ANAD Hearing Commission decides to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date of the provisional suspension.
