Retraction Note: Near-infrared refractive detection of newly freshly-excised human-liver tissues: an optical refractive index biosensor based on 2D-photonic crystal.

The article titled "Retraction Note: Near-infrared refractive detection of newly freshly-excised human-liver tissues: an optical refractive index biosensor based on 2D-photonic crystal" from the journal Optical & Quantum Electronics has been retracted by the Publisher and Editors-in-Chief due to concerns about compromised peer-review processes, inappropriate references, and being out of scope for the journal. The retraction was made after an investigation by the Publisher, and the authors have expressed disagreement with the decision. The Publisher, along with the Editors-in-Chief, no longer has confidence in the results and conclusions of the article. [Extracted from the article]
