| 21. | The average level of hematocrit among the riders was 44.9 percent, the UCI said.
|
| 22. | This results in polycythemia, abnormally increased numbers of circulating red blood cells and an elevated hematocrit.
|
| 23. | With modern lab equipment, the hematocrit is calculated by an automated analyzer and not directly measured.
|
| 24. | Before the 2002 Tour de Romandie, Gustov was tested with a hematocrit level above fifty percent.
|
| 25. | At this time there was no limit to the hematocrit level but the large fluctuation was suspicious.
|
| 26. | Four riders had hematocrit levels below the legal limit of 50 %, establish in February 1997.
|
| 27. | The UCI has admitted that the average rider's hematocrit has risen 5 percentage points since 1992.
|
| 28. | Another way of measuring hematocrit levels has been through optical methods such as spectrophotometry has also been developed.
|
| 29. | The average level of hematocrit among riders at the start was 44.9 percent, the UCI said.
|
| 30. | In micro-circulation, the Fahraeus effect will take place, resulting in a large change in hematocrit.
