ZURICH - The IOC said it had not detected any significant abuse of clenbuterol after finding "very low levels" of the banned substance during retesting of samples from the Beijing Olympics.
The International Olympic Committee's comments on Monday came one day after German broadcaster ARD reported that traces of the banned substance were found in samples provided by members of the Jamaican sprint team at the 2008 Games.
Jamaica won 10 medals in the sprint events, led by Usain Bolt, who took gold in the men's 100 and 200 metres.
