Abstract

Retraction: H. Liu, X. Li, J. Mulero, A. Carbonaro, M. Short, J. Ge, “A Convenient Guideline to Determine if Two Y-STR Profiles Are From the Same Lineage,” Electrophoresis 37, no. 12 (2016): 1659–1668. https://doi.org/10.1002/elps.201500566.

The above article, published online on 05 April 2016, in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editors-in-Chief, Blanca H. Lapizco-Encinas, Hermann Wätzig, and Carlos D. Garcia; and Wiley-VCH GmbH. The journal received a complaint from a third party regarding concerns over a conflict of interest for the institution which provided ethical approval for the study, a lack of clear informed consent procedure, and/or additional concerns that the forensic database of Y-STR profiles used in this article may be used to identify persons not included in the database and that the use of this tool violates ethical standards for forensic genetics. The publisher contacted the authors to request further information on the informed consent procedure used for the study and received a response from some of the authors, stating that they were not able to provide the additional required details regarding the informed consent procedure. As such, the journal and publisher have proceeded with the investigation based on all information available in the article and at submission. The retraction has been agreed to because the journal is not able to verify whether appropriate informed consent was obtained from all study participants whose Y-STR profiles were used for the research study reported in this article, which violates the journal's and the publisher's policies regarding informed consent for studies involving human subjects. The associated data for this article has been withdrawn from the publication record following a concern that the data could be used to identify those who have participated in the research. The authors did not respond to our notice regarding the retraction.

回归：确定两个 Y-STR 图谱是否来自同一血统的便捷准则。

引用本文：刘海华，李晓东，李晓东，葛建军，“一种确定两个Y-STR基因型是否来自同一谱系的简易方法”，电泳，第37期。12(2016): 1659-1668。https://doi.org/10.1002/elps.201500566。上述文章于2016年4月5日在线发表在Wiley在线图书馆（wileyonlinelibrary.com）上，经期刊总编辑Blanca H. Lapizco-Encinas， Hermann Wätzig和Carlos D. Garcia同意撤回；Wiley-VCH GmbH该期刊收到了来自第三方的投诉，投诉内容涉及为该研究提供伦理批准的机构存在利益冲突，缺乏明确的知情同意程序，以及/或其他担忧，即本文中使用的Y-STR基因图谱的法医数据库可能被用于识别数据库中未包括的人，并且该工具的使用违反了法医遗传学的伦理标准。出版商联系了作者，要求提供关于研究中使用的知情同意程序的进一步信息，并收到了一些作者的回复，称他们无法提供有关知情同意程序的额外细节。因此，期刊和出版商已经根据文章和提交的所有可用信息进行了调查。撤稿已被同意，因为期刊无法核实是否从所有研究参与者那里获得了适当的知情同意，这些参与者的Y-STR档案被用于本文报道的研究，这违反了期刊和出版商关于涉及人类受试者的研究的知情同意政策。由于担心这些数据可能被用来识别参与研究的人员，本文的相关数据已从发表记录中删除。作者没有回应我们关于撤稿的通知。

期刊介绍： ELECTROPHORESIS is an international journal that publishes original manuscripts on all aspects of electrophoresis, and liquid phase separations (e.g., HPLC, micro- and nano-LC, UHPLC, micro- and nano-fluidics, liquid-phase micro-extractions, etc.). Topics include new or improved analytical and preparative methods, sample preparation, development of theory, and innovative applications of electrophoretic and liquid phase separations methods in the study of nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates natural products, pharmaceuticals, food analysis, environmental species and other compounds of importance to the life sciences. Papers in the areas of microfluidics and proteomics, which are not limited to electrophoresis-based methods, will also be accepted for publication. Contributions focused on hyphenated and omics techniques are also of interest. Proteomics is within the scope, if related to its fundamentals and new technical approaches. Proteomics applications are only considered in particular cases. Papers describing the application of standard electrophoretic methods will not be considered. Papers on nanoanalysis intended for publication in ELECTROPHORESIS should focus on one or more of the following topics: • Nanoscale electrokinetics and phenomena related to electric double layer and/or confinement in nano-sized geometry • Single cell and subcellular analysis • Nanosensors and ultrasensitive detection aspects (e.g., involving quantum dots, "nanoelectrodes" or nanospray MS) • Nanoscale/nanopore DNA sequencing (next generation sequencing) • Micro- and nanoscale sample preparation • Nanoparticles and cells analyses by dielectrophoresis • Separation-based analysis using nanoparticles, nanotubes and nanowires.
