[br] one of the country's largest dairy products' makers said its milk food had been contaminated with a chemical called melamine(三聚氰胺). the announcement came after the company conducted an internal investigation. [br] a gansu provincial health department spokesman said that altogether 59 infants have been diagnosed with kidney(肾) stones in the province this year. reports said many of them had been fed the same brand of milk food. no infants were diagnosed with kidney stones last year or in 2006 in the province.

[br] samples of the milk food were tested in a state-run laboratory, the country's food and drugs watchdog said. the administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine (aqsiq) launched a probe on tuesday. [br] a spokesperson for the ministry of health, which is helping with the investigation, said traces of cyanuramide that can cause kidney stones were found in sanlu-brand milk products.

[br] in a statement carried by the new zealand press association, fonterra said its chinese partner was moving to ensure its products were safe.
