Israel Adesanya calls Jon Jones' UFC 239 performance 'meh' | Ariel Helwani's MMA Show by Adayum

[+1] in MMA

[–]antiparticular 1 point 18 hours ago The rhetoric from the VP about how small a picogram is, is a disgrace.

See this is exactly what im talking about . Scientist have mass spectrometers and electron-microscopes at hand , yes methods are getting better but all WADA accredited labs can detect picograms

'A World Anti-Doping Agency-accredited lab in Cologne, Germany, found a "very small concentration" of clenbuterol in Contador's urine sample on 21 July at the Tour, according to the UCI. However, the amount was 400 times less than the 50 picogram benchmark measurement that anti-doping laboratories accredited by Wada must be able to detect.'

This is from 2010 .....

there is no other way!

This isn’t the 50s. We live in a world where we can literally identify individual atoms. The tests USADA uses can detect picograms. I suggest maybe paying attention to the time period and the technology we have. The rest of what you said I have addressed. Without evidence, you can’t peddle that someone can microdose at a level smaller than picograms and still reap benefit. Unless you have credible studies to the contrary, I suggest you stop here.
