At the authors request, the Editor and Publisher of International Journal of Nanomedicine wish to retract the published article. Concerns were raised over alleged image manipulation in Figure 5 in which elements of the image appeared to have duplicated several times. The authors responded to our queries but were unable to provide a satisfactory explanation for the alleged image manipulation. The authors were able to provide the original images for Figure 5 but they could not be used as a replacement for a corrigendum and both the Editor and authors agreed to retract the article.
Our decision-making was informed by our policy on publishing ethics and integrity and the COPE guidelines on retraction.
The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as “Retracted”.
