Abstract
Retraction of ‘Preparation of NiFe2O4@MIL-101(Fe)/GO as a novel nanocarrier and investigation of its antimicrobial properties’ by Fatemeh Shateran et al., RSC Adv., 2022, 12, 7092–7102, https://doi.org/10.1039/D1RA08523A.
The Royal Society of Chemistry hereby wholly retracts this RSC Advances article due to concerns with the reliability of the data.
The SEM images in Fig. 4a, b and c are the same as other SEM images found in other publications, describing different materials. The XRD patterns in Fig. 5 have repeating segments between the traces.
Given the significance of these concerns, the findings presented in this paper are no longer reliable.
The authors were informed about the retraction of the article. Mohammad Ali Ghasemzadeh agreed with the decision, the other authors have not responded.
