The doping control lab tasked withperforming analyses at the 2010 Winter Olympics has been accredited by the Standards Council of Canada. The accreditation certificate was presented today to lab director Christiane Ayotte<\/a>, who also heads up the INRS Doping Control Laboratory, the only Canadian lab accredited by the World Antidoping Agency, and the second biggest of its kind in the world.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The accreditation, which reflects the lab\u2019s stringent standards, was attended by Michel Girard, the Standards Council of Canada\u2019s director of strategic relations and stakeholder engagement.; Jacques Girard, director of Bureau de normalisation du Qu\u00e9bec; Daniel Coderre, director \u00a0general of INRS; and Alain Fournier, director of the INRS\u2013Institut Armand-Frappier Research Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe satellite lab set up in Vancouver will benefit from the expertise developed by INRS and the progress it has made in the fight against doping. And, thanks to the collaboration of a number of industrial partners, it also boasts state-of-the-art equipment that will allow us to perform highly sophisticated analyses for the duration of the Games,\u201d noted Christiane Ayotte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Standards Council of Canada (SCC) is delighted that its accreditation, attributed in collaboration with Bureau de normalisation du Qu\u00e9bec (BNQ), will allow INRS\u2013Institut Armand-Frappier to be onsite in Vancouver to provide topnotch service at the upcoming Olympics. BNQ supported the INRS bid for accreditation of its satellite doping control lab. The integrity of antidoping test results at the Olympic and Paralympic Games explains the importance of adhering to international standards and the value of accreditation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are delighted to support the Olympic Committee\u2019s goal of a doping-free games by accrediting the satellite lab in Richmond, BC. The SCC accreditation provides an additional assurance that the lab test results will be as accurate as possible. This is key in the fight against doping at the Olympic and Paralympic Games,\u201d said SCC executive director John Walter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This accreditation bears testament to the quality of the research and analysis techniques developed by Professor Christiane Ayotte\u2019s team. \u201cIn addition to helping promote the work of INRS, the doping control laboratory illustrates the importance our university places on basic research and knowledge transfer in the field\u2014two areas that are essential and inseparable in proposing innovative solutions to address today\u2019s concerns,\u201d said a delighted Daniel Coderre, director general of INRS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
