Abstract
Expression of concern for ‘Novel scandium-MOF nanocrystals as peroxidase-mimicking nanozymes for highly sensitive colorimetric detection of ascorbic acid in human serum’ by Yiqian Su et al., CrystEngComm, 2023, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1039/d2ce01023b.
CrystEngComm is publishing this expression of concern in order to alert our readers that we are presently unable to confirm the reliability of the conclusions of this article.
The Royal Society of Chemistry was contacted by a reader who raised concerns about the characterisation of the reported material as a metal–organic framework.
The authors were contacted and were unable to provide additional crystallographic characterisation. This expression of concern will be associated with the article until the authors are able to provide additional data to support their conclusions.
