Abstract

A previously published method for single hair analysis has been applied to a doping case for further clarification. Amphetamine could be detected in multiple micro segments resulting in two distinct concentration peaks in several hairs. The consumption of a contaminated food supplement as possible source for the amphetamine is discussed.
