Abstract:
      Clenbuterol is mainly used to treat asthma clinically,but it is also illegally abused in animal husbandry and sports due to its anabolic effect.The abuse in animal husbandry will lead to the residue of the drug in animal muscle or other edible tissues.Ingestion of this kind of contaminated meat by mistake will trigger the positive event of doping control.The number of positive cases of clenbuterol has been at the top of positive substances list every year since 2014,and the vast majority of positive cases are related to the accidental consumption of meat food contaminated by clenbuterol.How to distinguish whether it is food contamination or doping abuse of clenbuterol in doping control has been an international problem.Therefore,clenbuterol has once again become a hot spot in sports.In order to comprehensively sort out the research progress of the determination methods for clenbuterol and its development direction in sports,laying a foundation for further related work in the future,the determination methods of clenbuterol and its abuse in sports are summarized through consulting the literatures in recent ten years.
