The journal retracts the article “Biosynthesized Iron Oxide Nanoparticles from Petroselinum crispum Leaf Extract Mitigate Lead-Acetate-Induced Anemia in Male Albino Rats: Hematological, Biochemical and Histopathological Features” [1] cited above.
Following publication, concerns were brought to the attention of the Editorial Office regarding the integrity of several figures presented in this publication [1].
Adhering to our standard procedure, an investigation was conducted by the Editorial Office and Editorial Board that identified partial duplications within Figures 4–6 within this article [1]. While the authors cooperated in the investigation, raw material meeting the journal’s original image requirements could not be provided for Editorial Board evaluation. Consequently, the Editorial Board has lost confidence in the reliability of the findings and has decided to retract this publication, as per MDPI’s retraction policy (https://www.mdpi.com/ethics#_bookmark30).
This retraction was approved by the Editor-in-Chief of the Toxics journal.
The authors did not agree to this retraction.
