WADA clears Beijing lab to resume testing

CHINA’S anti-doping agency said yesterday that the World Anti-Doping Agency has approved the resumption of testing operations at a Beijing laboratory.

WADA had suspended the accreditation of Beijing’s national anti-doping laboratory in April, weeks after launching a probe into drugs allegations in Chinese swimming. “Effective immediately, the Beijing anti-doping laboratory has resumed comprehensive anti-doping testing operations,” the center said in a short statement on its website. The center said it had received a notice from WADA confirming it had met the agency’s technical requirements, but did not elaborate. Following WADA’s suspension of the agency, Xinhua had quoted the laboratory as saying that false negative results were caused by “technical errors” because it had yet to update testing methods.
