Retraction notice to “Biomedical microelectromechanical systems (BioMEMS): Revolution in drug delivery and analytical techniques” [Saudi Pharm. J. 24 (2016) 1–20]

This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/withdrawalpolicy).

This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief.

The authors have plagiarized part of a paper that had already appeared in Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews 64 (2012) 496–507 doi:https://doi.org//10.1016/j.addr.2011.11.013. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that their work is original and has not appeared in a publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and apologies are offered to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.
