Sergei Skripal
London later claimed that the agent had been developed in Russian Federation and accused Moscow of complicity in the incident.
Moscow has also expelled diplomats in retaliation. The couple where found unconscious on bench in Salisbury shopping centre.
The use of Russian-developed nerve agent Novichok to poison ex-spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter makes it "highly likely" that Russia was involved, British Prime Minister Theresa May said Monday.
The Metropolitan Police believe Mr Skripal and his daughter, who was visiting him from Russian Federation, first came into contact with the deadly chemical at his home in Salisbury.
She denounced Britain's assertion that Russian Federation was behind the nerve agent attack on ex-spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter as a "swindle" and an "international provocation".
Sergei Skripal is a former Russian Colonel who was convicted by Moscow of spying for the UK.
The Skripals remain hospitalized in critical condition. "Her condition is now stable".
The medical director for Salisbury District Hospital said Skripal, 33, is now in stable condition.
The pair had been in critical condition since they were brought to hospital after coming into contact with the nerve agent on 4 March.

"Traces of the nerve agent have been found at some of the other scenes detectives have been working at over the past few weeks, but at lower concentrations to that found at the home address", said Haydon. Before the exchange, he was serving 13 years in prison for leaking information to British intelligence.
In July 2010, he was one of four prisoners released by Moscow in exchange for 10 Russian spies arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The Metropolitan Police said it wanted to reassure the public that searches around the Skripal's neighbourhood were precautionary.
The British government has accused the Russian state of involvement in the attack - a claim Moscow has denied.
Britain has blamed Russia for the attack, triggering the expulsion of about 150 Russian diplomats from the UK, US, Australia and other Western allies.
European nations, Canada, Australia and North Atlantic Treaty Organisation have joined in, and on Thursday the former Soviet republic of Georgia said it would expel one Russian diplomat in solidarity with Britain.
Georgia's Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Thursday that the diplomat has been declared persona non grata and must leave within a week.
Thomas Schnoll, spokesman for Austria Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl, told CNN that Austria condemned the Skripal poisoning but wanted to keep channels of communication with Russian Federation open. Georgia's foreign ministry has not publicly identified him.
At the U.N., Russian Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia said, Washington has "abused its power" as the host of the UN headquarters when it moved to expel 12 staffers from Russia's mission at the UN, Russia Today reported on Monday.
