A Corrigendum on
Evaluation of the SARS-CoV-2 Inactivation Efficacy Associated With Buffers From Three Kits Used on High-Throughput RNA Extraction Platforms
By Thom RE, Eastaugh LS, O’Brien LM, Ulaeto DO, Findlay JS, Smither SJ, Phelps AL, Stapleton HL, Hamblin KA and Weller SA (2021). Front. Cell. Infect. Microbiol. 11:716436. doi: 10.3389/fcimb.2021.716436
In the original article, there was a mistake in Table 1: Protocols tested for assessing inactivation using lysis buffers as published. During the publication process the components for each of the three kits tested in this study (as stated in the ‘Reagents’ and ‘Active virucidal components’ columns), were unclearly formatted. The corrected Table 1: Protocols tested for assessing inactivation using lysis buffers appears below.
TABLE 1
