WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administration conducted a search of the Las Vegas offices of ChemNutra, supplier of the ingredient suspected in the contamination of millions of cans of recalled dog and cat food, the company said Friday.
ChemNutra said it had been informed the company could be held accountable because it imported the melamine-adulterated wheat gluten used in the tainted pet food even though the company had no knowledge its supplier in China had introduced melamine into the product.

“We have cooperated and complied fully with FDA investigators both prior to and since being served with today’s search warrant, and will continue to do so,” Steve Miller, chief executive officer of ChemNutra Inc., said in a statement. “We keep very good records, which has made it relatively easy for the investigators to retrieve what they needed.”

A spokeswoman for the FDA, Julie Zawisza, would neither confirm nor deny a search warrant was executed.
