(This article belongs to the Special Issue Environmental and Health Effects of Heavy Metal)
The journal retracts the article entitled “Combined Toxicity of Xenobiotics Bisphenol A and Heavy Metals on Zebrafish Embryos (Danio rerio)” [1], cited above.
Following publication, concerns were brought to the attention of the Editorial Office regarding the duplication of images between this article [1] and other publications [2,3] produced by the same authorship group.
Adhering to our complaints procedure, an investigation was conducted by the Editorial Office and the Editorial Board that confirmed the duplication of a number of panels within [1] with panels contained within [2,3] presenting different experimental conditions. Following discussions with the authors, the Editorial Board were unable to fully verify the validity of the duplicated images. Consequently, the Editorial Board has lost confidence in the reliability of the findings and decided to retract this publication [1], as per MDPI’s retraction policy (https://www.mdpi.com/ethics#_bookmark30).
This retraction was approved by the Editor-in-Chief of the journal Toxics.
The authors did not agree to this retraction.
