Abstract
Expression of concern for ‘Filled and peptide-modified single-walled carbon nanotubes: synthesis, characterization, and in vitro test for cancer cell targeting’ by Zhiyuan Hu et al., RSC Adv., 2015, 5, 16792–16800.
The following article ‘Filled and peptide-modified single-walled carbon nanotubes: synthesis, characterization, and in vitro test for cancer cell targeting’ has been published in RSC Advances.
The Royal Society of Chemistry has been provided with credible information suggesting that the results presented in this paper, in particular Fig. 1 and 3 and the supplementary information, may not be reliable. The concerns raised are under investigation and the Royal Society of Chemistry is seeking verification of the information provided to establish whether the reported results are sound.
RSC Advances is publishing this Expression of Concern to alert readers to the concerns raised as the on-going investigation may take some time to complete.
This notice will be updated when a final outcome is reached.
