Thai police and livestock officials have uncovered a cattle-doping operation that involved nearly 1,000 animals and banned salbutamol. The eight-month investigation traced contaminated beef from a Pathum Thani market back to its source, resulting in the seizure of feed, chemicals, additives, and production equipment worth over 32 million baht.

Salbutamol can illegally enhance muscle and reduce fat in cattle, but residues in meat may cause health issues such as irregular heartbeat, tremors, nausea, and dizziness. A Thai-Swedish couple is seeking action seven months after their teenage son died in a road accident in Chon Buri, where they allege the driver remains at large.
