China's Food and Drug Administration has officially assigned some responsibility in one of the biggest doping scandals of this Olympics (so far) to a Shanghai company called Auspure Biotechnology, according to the Shanghai Daily. Eleven Greek weightlifters failed drug tests in April and the athletes' subsequent ban from the 2008 Olympics has pretty much destroyed the team's medal hopes. When the positive tests were announced, Greek coach Christos Iakovou said Auspure had sold him tainted vitamins without his knowledge, and claimed to have a written apology from the company as evidence.
