Abstract

Expression of concern for ‘Enhancement of anti-leukemic potential of 2-hydroxyphenyl-azo-2′-naphthol (HPAN) on MOLT-4 cells through conjugation with Cu(II)’ by Tathagata Deb et al., RSC Adv., 2014, 4, 18419–18430, https://doi.org/10.1039/C3RA44765K.


RSC Advances is publishing this expression of concern to alert readers that we are presently unable to confirm the reliability of the data presented in the microscopic images in Fig 4 of this article.

The Royal Society of Chemistry has asked the affiliated institution (Gurudas College) to investigate this matter and confirm the integrity and reliability of the data in Fig. 4 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.
