Inspectors say they found no problems at a Chinese factory making dumplings which poisoned at least 10 people and put a girl in a coma in Japan.
A group from Japan toured the Tianyang Foods factory in Hebei province on Wednesday and reported that it was clean and well-maintained.
Japan has said the product may have been contaminated deliberately.
A senior Chinese official has said that activists opposed to improved Chinese relations with Japan could be to blame.
The case has caused huge media interest and public alarm in Japan, where dumplings are a popular product.

An inspection group from Japan toured the manufacturing facilities of the dumplings and confirmed that the place was very clean. The Japanese believe the dumplings may have been deliberately poisoned because of the upcoming of the "eve on the Lunar New Year" in China; a time when millions of Chinese people will eat dumplings. Maybe this actually was an act of terrorism.
