In this investigative critique of the above titled scientific article, the scientific data and figures, the statements of the authors in the Results Section, Discussion Section and Acknowledgments Section were analyzed as to their scientific merit, veracity, truthfulness, consistency with current scientific pronouncements of other researchers in the field, and whether there was Data Fabrication, Data Falsification, Data Theft, and Dishonest Scientific Report. Evidence is presented to support the conclusion that the authors have committed Data Fabrication with respect to Figures 3 and 6, Data Falsification with respect to Figure 6, Theft of data with respect to Figures 1, 2, 4 and 5, and dishonest scientific report with respect to the reporting of experimental procedures and certain facts in the Methods Section, Discussion Section and Acknowledgments Section. That the authors have also committed Theft of Idea and Scientific Fraud is also discussed,
