BRAZILIAN DOPING CONTROL
LABORATORY
ABOUT
The LBCD is a broad academic space with modern facilities and the latest equipment for the training of professional excellence. In addition to the various lines of research developed, the LBCD performs analyzes for doping control, fundamental in promoting the sporting ethic and level playing field between competitors. Responsible for doping control and the Olympics Paralimpíadas Rio 2016 Pan American Games in 2007 and other events, is the only laboratory in Brazil accredited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA-AMA).
