Rudi van Houts del mèrida mtb + clembuterol


Un holandés da positivo por clembuterol y también lo justifica con la carne


Rudi van Houts, ciclista de mountain bike holandés, ha dado positivo por clembuterol y ha dado la misma explicación que Alberto Contador: la carne que comió en México (viaje tras el cual le hicieron el control antidopaje) estaba contaminada. El holandés dio aún menos que el español, 3 picogramos, por lo que ha decidido contratar al mismo bioquímico holandés, Douwe de Boer, de la Maastricht University Medical Center, para demostrar su inocencia. La diferencia entre ambos casos es que que él basará su defensa en que en México el clembuterol no está prohibido.

El doctor Douwe de Boer, biólogo holandés experto en el análisis de sustancias dopantes, avaló la inocencia y la versión de Contador sobre su resultado analítico adverso por clembuterol en el Tour de Francia 2010 y aseguró que la cantidad hallada en la orina del triple ganador del Tour es tan “extremadamente baja” que pudo producirse por la ingesta de carne.

Rudy van Houts tests positive for Clenbuterol



Dutch MTBer of the year claims results came from contaminated Mexican meat

Dutch mountain biker of the year Rudy van Houts has tested positive for Clenbuterol. He returned the positive doping control immediately after returning from a trip to Mexico in late October.

“I know I am innocent,” he said in a press release issued Thursday. “In Mexico we ate a lot of meat, it is possible the Clenbuterol was in this food. Otherwise I wouldn't know how the Clenbuterol came into my body.

“I'm going to do everything I can to prove I am innocent,” he declared. Van Houts has already given a sample for a hair analysis test.

The Dutchman is looking to other athletes who have recently tested positive for the same substance, including Alberto Contador. He cited German table tennis player Dimitrij Ovtcharov, who was found innocent.

A more similar case is that of Italian cyclist Alessandro Colo, who tested positive for Clenbuterol at the Tour of Mexico in April. The ISD-Neri rider was given a reduced one-year ban after his defence offered official data showing that 18 per cent of all meat in Mexico is treated with Clenbuterol.

“I hold on to these cases. I am not quitting,” van Houts said. “If you know you didn't take the Clenbuterol, you have enough reasons to prove you are innocent.”

The 26-year-old rides for Multivan Merida Biking Team He won the Dutch cross-country national title this year and was the highest-ranking Dutch rider n the UCI World Cup rankings for 2010, as 20th.
