MONTE CARLO, Monaco � No positive doping tests were reported at the world indoor championships, track and field's governing body said today.
The IAAF carried out 127 tests at the three-day meet last month in Valencia, Spain _ including 67 for the performance enhancing blood-booster EPO.
Also, 81 blood screenings were taken in Valencia to help the IAAF monitor and target-test athletes.
"The results of the blood screens are added to other samples taken both pre-competition and out-of-competition over the past years, to form an individual profile for each athlete," the IAAF said in a statement on its Web site.
