Abstract
Expression of concern for ‘Decoration of graphene oxide nanosheets with carboxymethylcellulose hydrogel, silk fibroin and magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical and hyperthermia applications’ by Mostafa Ghafori Gorab et al., Nanoscale Adv., 2023, 5, 153–159, https://doi.org/10.1039/D2NA00394E.
Nanoscale Advances is publishing this expression of concern in order to alert our readers to the fact that concerns have been raised regarding the reliability of the hemolysis plate images in Fig. 5 and the MTT plate image in Fig. 6. An investigation is underway, and an expression of concern will continue to be associated with the article until a final outcome is reached.
