a simple method to detect the stimulant modafinil in authentic saliva using a carbon nanotube screen printed electrode with adsorptive stripping voltammetry
Sensors and Actuators B-chemical, 2019Co-Authors: Wallans Dos T P Santos, Richard G ComptonAbstract:Abstract Electrochemical detection of modafinil, a stimulant banned in Sports Competitions, is reported for the first time. An electrochemical sensor is developed based on carbon nanotubes screen-printed electrodes (SPE-CNT) with adsorptive stripping wave voltammetry (AdSWV). The proposed electrochemical method is applied to authentic human saliva for modafinil determination (LOD of 2.0 μM) without interference from uric acid or ascorbic acid. The analytical performance of the SPE-CNT with AdSWV for detection of modafinil in authentic saliva samples suggests its possible application as a simple and fast method for doping control.

a nano carbon electrode optimized for adsorptive stripping voltammetry application to detection of the stimulant selegiline in authentic saliva
Sensors and Actuators B-chemical, 2019Co-Authors: Wallans Dos T P Santos, Hatem M A Amin, Richard G ComptonAbstract:Abstract A multilayer Carbon Black (CB) modified Glassy Carbon Electrode (GCE) is proposed, developed and optimized for Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry (AdSV). The thick (up to 1000 monolayers) multilayer CB modification offers a significant enhancement in sensitivity for AdSV but not diffusive voltammetry. The detection of the stimulant selegiline, which is a prohibited drug for athletes in Sports Competitions, is used as model for application of the proposed electrochemical method in saliva samples. The analytical performance of the CB-GCE for detection of seligeline in authentic saliva samples revealed a limit of detection of 0.12 μmol L−1 which is sufficiently low to allow a possible application of this fast method in the doping control of this drug.

detecting manipulation in cup and round robin Sports Competitions
International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence, 2012Co-Authors: Tyrel Russell, Peter Van BeekAbstract:Some of the core attributes of Sports are supposed to be integrity, honesty and Sportsmanship. However, there have been numerous cases where individual athletes and teams have thrown games and colluded to manipulate Sports Competitions. Much of the previous work has focused on proving that some types of Competitions are computationally hard to manipulate and thus possibly resistant to manipulation. In contrast, in this paper we focus on detecting patterns of manipulations in Sports Competitions by coalitions of teams. We show that it is possible to successfully detect certain patterns of manipulations in cups and round robins, two of the most common types of Sports Competitions. The practical benefit of our approach is a tool that can be used by competition organizers to highlight suspicious play within the competition and so aid in the detection of cheating coalitions.

Construction of Basic Match Schedules for Sports Competitions by using graph theory
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 1998Co-Authors: A. Van Weert, Jan A. M. SchreuderAbstract:Basic Match Schedules are important for constructing Sports timetables. Firstly these schedules guarantee the fairness of the Sports Competitions and secondly they reduce the complexity of the problem. This paper presents an approach to the problem of finding Basic Match Schedules for Sports Competitions. The approach is clarified by applying it to the Dutch volleyball competition. By using graph representation and theory this approach has the potential to classify Sports Competitions and to build libraries with Basic Match Schedules for each class of Sports Competitions. As an example we present an overview of some Basic Match Schedules for the volleyball competition.

Study on Cultural Survey of Sports Competition Rules
Journal of Sports Sciences, 2010Co-Authors: Yin BichangAbstract:The rules of Sports competition is that people in Sports Competitions in the decision to sport participation in the formation of the main acts of a normative cultural phenomenon,it contains a response to the process of social civilization and the values required.This article is from the perspective of culture and examine the rules of Sports competition,thus revealing its rich cultural purport,to establish "fair competition" of the philosophical basis,and to generate a harmonious cultural environment.
