Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicinehas retracted the article titled “Essential Oils Loaded inNanosystems: A Developing Strategy for a Successful"erapeutic Approach” [1] due to high level of text similaritywith previously published articles [2–6], of which [2, 4] werenot cited.
A reassessment of the article concluded that large areasof overlapping text were identified throughout the article,especially in Section 5, “EO-Loaded Nanodelivery Systems.”"e article is therefore being retracted with the agreement ofthe editorial board and the authors.
