BEIJING, Feb. 28 (Chinese media) -- More than 200 food
inspectors made a surprise inspection of all major meat wholesale markets in
Beijing before 6 a.m. Saturday in a coordinated crackdown on contaminated meat
products.
The municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce said
the campaign was launched after a steroid was found in pork in south China's
Guangdong Province. The drug was meant to increase the amount of lean meat in
pigs. Also, pork diseases such as blue-ear were foundin Beijing's neighboring
regions.
On-the-spot tests showed all the 131 meat samples of
pork, beefand mutton were safe.
The inspectors also collected 55 samples of meat
products for lab tests. The results will be announced at a later date.
