Abstract
Retraction of ‘Structural characterization of ginseng cyclopeptides and detection of capability to induce apoptosis in gastrointestinal cancer cells’ by Zhuo Liu et al., RSC Adv., 2019, 9, 29847–29855, https://doi.org/10.1039/C9RA03965A.
The Royal Society of Chemistry hereby wholly retracts this RSC Advances article due to a significant amount of unattributed text overlap with articles by different author groups that were not cited, including articles published in Scientific Reports by Zhenjian Zhuo et al.1 and RSC Advances by Man Zheng et al.2
The authors were asked to comment and provide the raw data for this article but did not respond. The considerable amount of unattributed text overlap, and the lack of raw data, undermines the integrity and reliability of the entire article.
The authors were informed but have not responded to any correspondence regarding the retraction.
