Abstract

The Editors have retracted this article. After publication, concerns were raised regarding the data presented in Fig. 7, specifically: In Fig. 7b HeLa, Ce6 group 3 and SiNPs group 3 images appear to overlap; In Fig. 7b HeLa, GP-Ce6-SiNPs control, group 1 and group 2 images appear to overlap; In Fig. 7c, Heart GP-Ce6-SiNPs (–) and PBS (–) images apear to overlap; In Fig. 7c, Lung PBS -, PBS + and GP-Ce6-SiNPs + images appear to overlap.
