ExperTox, a Texas lab, found acetaminophen (a fifth possible contaminant) in at
least five samples of pet food that were submitted by pet owners and pet
manufacturers. The medication was mostly found with cyanuric acid, and hundreds
of other samples that were sent in tested positive for melamine. The
contaminants were found in pet foods that have not been recalled.
ExperTox said that the highest level of acetaminophen was found in a dog food
sample submitted by a pet food manufacturer, but the lab is not identifying the
company. The FDA is now investigating the findings from the lab and a FDA
spokesperson says that: “what’s significant is these things are there. They don’
t belong there.”
