from the story:

Chemical studies of the substances she'd been exposed to proved
fruitless. Nobody could predict what any of them might have become when
exposed to an environment such as must have been inside that collision
chamber before the bulkhead blew. Every calculation, every act of
scientific prediction, Sara tried gave her back the same result. Caught
in the blast radius of the exploding supercollider, it shouldn't have
mattered -what- was being studied in there - she should have been
vaporized. Since she clearly hadn't been, she had to conclude, however
reluctantly, that for once conventional science had no answer.

As I recall, the chemicals that Barry was splashed with were all convetional ones, didn't slow him down any. I suspect that the fact that two of the drugs were metabolic enhancers was merely coincidental in Sara gaining superspeed.
