In the published article, there was an error in Table 1 as published. The footnote does not correspond to the superscript in the table. The corrected Table 1 and its caption appear below.
TABLE 1. Concentrations of inorganic elements (mM) and pH in blood plasma and intraluminal fluids from the excurrent duct of rats.
In the published article, there was an error in the Funding statement. The grant support from “Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality (STCSM19140903400)” was not included in the original statement, which is:
“This work is supported by NNSFC grants (31871166; 82071704) to WWS and startup of ShanghaiTech University.”
The correct Funding statement appears below.
“This work is supported by NNSFC grants (31871166; 82071704), Science and Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality grant (19140903400), and the startup of ShanghaiTech University to WWS.”
