Cabio Biotech: Chinese firm under fire in infant formula recallby AFP Staff WritersBeijing (AFP) Jan 29, 2026A global recall of potentially contaminated infant formula has heaped scrutiny onto the Chinese firm Cabio Biotech, the supplier of the ingredient suspected of being tainted. But French company Nutribio told AFP its recall "follows an alert from Cabio Biotech, an international supplier of the Omega-6 (ARA) ingredient". As well as ARA, Cabio Biotech's other main products are docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), sialic acid and Vitamin A precursor beta-carotene. Beijing said this month it attached "great importance" to Nestle's formula recall in Europe and urged the company's domestic arm to promptly recall relevant batches in China. The State Administration for Market Regulation vowed to "fully ensure the quality and safety of infant formula", a statement said.
