Irish dioxin scare spreads to beef

LONDON, England (CNN) -- The Republic of Ireland has put 45 cattle farms under restrictions amid concerns that dangerous chemicals could have contaminated beef in addition to pork. The farms "received potentially contaminated feed," the country's Department of Agriculture said in a statement Tuesday.

Officials carried out tests on 11 herds and found three had unacceptably high levels of PCBs, a type of chemical that can cause cancer.

The department insists there is "no public health concern," though it admitted the samples were "technically non-compliant." The other eight herds tested clear, the government said.

Dublin has recalled pork products from all pigs slaughtered in Ireland following the discovery of dioxins this weekend. The government is not naming the beef farms
