Riken's final investigation, published a little more than a year ago, noted that the samples in the study had very likely been contaminated by embryonic stem cells — but it did not present an over-all theory of the case.
The present study established the presence of Bacillus cereus in salad samples in the study area.
This might be attributed to the number of the samples in the study.
