"More revelations were coming out of the Spanish media. The Catalan daily, El Periódico, reported that Saiz was allegedly found carrying the WADA-banned substance called Synacthen, which artificially promotes muscle growth. The Spanish magazine Intervíu, citing police sources, published a list of products allegedly found by Spain's Guardia Civil in Fuentes offices. Among the alleged booty were human growth hormones, testosterone and Actovigen, a blood-boosting product with similar effects as EPO. "
Didn't Postal have Actovigen in their possession during the 2000 Tour when their trash was searched? If I remember correctly they said they had it for skin abrasions. Actovigen was not on the banned substance list back then.

Since it's valueless there's no reason to worry about Actovigen which is SUSPECTED of being used to dilute the blood off so that those with high Hct could test safely.
As is usual, those who report on these things seldom know what the hell they're talking about. They must be in league with Brian.
