kidney Stone Cases

China's Health Ministry said here Friday that it has launched a nationwide investigation into the infant kidney stone cases with a domestic milk powder, Sanlu formula, involved and asked all local health agencies to report relevant cases immediately.

The number of cases as to 24:00 Sept. 11 should be reported to the ministry by 17:00 Sept. 12, the ministry said in a notice issued on Friday.

"Similar cases in the future shall be reported anytime they were discovered," it said.

One baby have died of kidney stones and more than 50 others were reported suffering from kidney stones in northwestern Gansu and other provinces this year. Investigations showed that most of the baby patients had drunk the Sanlu formula.

Sanlu Group, a leading Chinese dairy producer, said on Thursday it had found in its self-check that some of its baby milk powder products were contaminated by tripolycyanamide.

The contaminated powder was all produced before Aug. 6 this year, and about 700 tonnes have been shipped, the company said. It has decided to recall all the baby milk powder it had produced before that date.

The Health Ministry, based on investigations by relevant government departments, also said it strongly suspected that Sanlu, based in Shijiazhuang of Hebei Province, had produced milk powder contaminated by the chemical.
