Abstract
Expression of concern for ‘Bacterial self-defense antibiotics release from organic–inorganic hybrid multilayer films for long-term anti-adhesion and biofilm inhibition properties’ by Qingwen Xu, Nanoscale, 2017, 9, 19245–19254, https://doi.org/10.1039/C7NR07106J.
Nanoscale is publishing this expression of concern in order to alert our readers that we are presently unable to confirm the reliability of the data presented in the article.
The Royal Society of Chemistry became aware of concerns about the reliability of the data presented in Fig. 9, 10 and 11 of the paper.
The Royal Society of Chemistry has asked the affiliated institution, Wenzhou Medical University, to investigate this matter and confirm the integrity and reliability of the data in Fig. 9, 10 and 11 of the paper. An expression of concern will continue to be associated with this manuscript until we receive information from the institution on this matter.
